Fighting for Your Workers Compensation Benefits
Employers are required by law to provide their employees with a safe and healthy working environment. If unsafe conditions at work cause you to become injured or sick, you are eligible to receive workers' compensation benefits to cover your treatment costs, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages. Our attorneys, who have served Rockland County, Brooklyn, and the Bronx for many years, have the experience to fight on your behalf and secure the compensation you deserve.
Workplace Injuries
A workplace injury is any accident or condition that an employee suffers as a direct result of their employment. Slip and fall and trip and fall accidents can occur in unsafe working environments; in addition, automobile and truck accidents can occur to employees whose job requirements require them to be on the road. Construction sites can be particularly hazardous workplace environments due to the increased likelihood of heavy machinery accidents and ladder and scaffolding accidents. These and other types of workplace accidents can cause employees to miss days, weeks, and even months from work as they heal from injuries. In some tragic cases, such as accidents that cause brain injury or spinal cord injury, workplace accidents can be life-threatening or life altering.
Although many workplace injuries are caused by accidents that happen in a brief instant, other workplace injuries may develop over time. These conditions include carpel-tunnel syndrome, back pain, and other injuries caused by repetitive or difficult movements. In addition, some employees may be at risk for developing lung cancer, including construction employees who are continually exposed to asbestos and other harmful materials.
