Third-Party Workers’ Compensation Claims

New York Personal Injury Attorneys Handling Work Injury Cases

Sustaining an on-the-job injury can drastically change your life. Depending on the injury, you may be unable to work for a long time and you may have large, ongoing medical bills. That's where the New York State Workers Compensation system comes into play. All employers are required by law in New York to carry workers compensation insurance, so if you were injured on the job, you need to speak with our legal team Constantinidis & Associates, P.C. Workers Compensation will pay your medical bills and your lost earnings. It can help cover accident-related medical bills and lost earnings and help you stay financially afloat as you recover.

Under New York law, you have the right to seek financial compensation for a work-related injury or illness, regardless of fault. While the benefits are there, they are not always easy to obtain, so it is important to seek legal assistance with your claim. The attorneys at Constantinidis & Associates, P.C., help injured employees in New York City and Long Island fight for and recover the benefits they need and deserve.

If you or someone you know has been seriously injured while working, there is no time to waste in securing representation to pursue the just compensation you deserve. New York has strict time limitations on personal injury claims, so call as soon as possible to get started with your case.

We have extensive experience representing injured workers from neck and back pain to workers who have suffered spinal cord injuries (paraplegia or quadriplegia) head injuries (traumatic brain injuries or closed head injuries) and other serious injuries. We have handled work related accident cases since our inception, so you can feel confident that when you retain our firm, your case will be in excellent hands. 

What to Do if You Are Injured or Become Ill at Work

There are three things employees should immediately do if they are injured in the workplace:

1. Report the injury to a supervisor

2. Request to see a doctor

3. Complete a workers’ compensation claim form

Unfortunately, many people wait until an injury is unbearable before they report it. This is a big mistake. What appears to be a minor injury, may be more serious and/or can lead to complications down the road. Prompt reporting and receipt of medical care ensures compensation benefits are not delayed so that you receive income while you are out of work. 

Types of injuries sustained at work included:

• Accidents happening while making deliveries

• Bicycle messenger accidents

• Motor vehicle accidents

• Machinery accidents

• Slip, trip and fall accidents

• Construction accidents and work-site accidents

• Falls from heights, i.e. ladders, steps, scaffolds while on the job

• Falls through unprotected openings on construction sites

• Repetitive stress injuries

• Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

• Equipment failure accidents

• Toxic chemical exposure
