Workplace Accidents

New York Injured Worker Attorney

A workplace accident leading to injury of a worker always raises questions regarding the scope of liability. Employers are protected by workers' compensation insurance, which covers injured employees. Sometimes an injured worker hesitates to report an injury for fear of retaliation, but there are strict time limits for reporting workers' compensation claims, and time is critical.

You May Have Other Remedies in Addition to Workers' Compensation

In addition to your workers' compensation claim, there may be a separate third-party liability claim or lawsuit to file if your injury involved the negligence of someone other than your employer. An equipment manufacturer, a delivery service or a subcontractor may be at fault. Pursuing compensation through such sources is a separate case from your workers' compensation claim.
