Even if you had a pre-existing condition when your workplace injury occurred, it simply does not matter. You have a right to workers' compensation if an injury at work caused your condition to worsen. Your employer may try to tell you this is not the case.

Mr. Jaffe regularly represents clients who have suffered a workplace injury that has aggravated a pre-existing condition. Just because you have a pre-existing condition is no reason to deny you benefits. Aggravations of prior injuries are considered new injuries under workers' compensation law. After all, you would not have been hurt had you not been performing your job.
Whether your back that was injured in a car accident some 15 years ago has now begun aching after you lifted a heavy box, or your wrists that were injured some years back are now painfully aching after working at the keyboard day in and day out, this law firm fights for your rights.
