Workers' Compensation in Massachusetts and New Hampshire:

 

The workers' compensation system in Massachusetts and New Hampshire is designed to provide benefits to those who are injured while working. These benefits can pay for medical care and provide you with income while you are unable to work. Injuries that can qualify you for these benefits range from traumatic accidents on the job to injuries that have built up over time (such as carpal tunnel syndrome).

 

To obtain benefits, there is a complicated web of rules and regulations that you must navigate. You should have a lawyer involved immediately to avoid having claims denied because of errors that occur when you try complex workers' comp matters yourself.
