Practice Areas Description

- Workers Compensation

Nearly all employers in New York are required to provide workers' compensation insurance for their employees. Even undocumented workers — those with no green card and no Social Security number — have a right to receive workers' compensation when injured on the job.


- Construction Falling Accidents

New York's labor law section 240 the so-called scaffold law protects the rights of workers who are injured when they fall from heights or are struck by a falling object while working. The law holds building owners and contractors liable for damages when workers fall from ladders, scaffolding, bridges, hoists, roofs, or harnesses, or when they are struck by an object that falls from a height.


- On-the-Job Injuries

If you sustained an on-the-job injury or developed an occupational disease, you are entitled to receive workers' compensation benefits, including medical care and wage benefits. It doesn't matter if the accident was your fault or the fault of a co-worker. If it happened on the job, you should file a workers' compensation claim.


- Repetitive Stress Back Injury

If you fell off a ladder and broke your back in a construction accident, there would be little doubt that your injury was work related. You can document the exact date and time it occurred. Repetitive stress injuries develop over time rather than all at once. There may never have been a single event that caused the injury. A career of keyboarding can result in carpal tunnel syndrome or tendonitis.


- Falls from Heights

The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that 835 workers fell to their deaths in workplace accidents in 2007, the greatest number of falling fatalities since the bureau began its census of fatal occupational injuries in 1992. Falls from heights include falls from ladders, scaffolding, roofs, non-moving vehicles, bridges, girders or other structural steel; falls down steps or stairs, through openings in the floor, skylights, and more.


- Occupational Disease

If your job directly caused or significantly contributed to the development of a disease, it is considered an occupational disease and is covered by the New York workers' compensation program. The workers' compensation attorneys of Alan M. Cass and Associates represent clients who have developed occupational diseases and help them obtain the full amount of workers' compensation benefits they deserve.


- Injured Iron Bridge Workers

The beautiful bridges and skyscrapers that define New York exist because of the talent, skill and hard work of iron workers and bridge workers. These workers also pay a crucial role in the creation of highways, power lines and other structures that we depend on every day. Whenever they put on a hard hat and go to work, they put themselves at risk.


- Injured Union Members

Whether you are a garment worker, a construction worker, a teacher or a teamster, if you have been hurt on the job, you have a right to medical benefits and wage benefits under New York's workers' compensation system. The workers' compensation attorneys of Alan M. Cass and Associates have represented injured union members since our founding in 1980.


- Social Security Disability

A serious illness, personal injury or on-the-job accident can leave you too sick or injured to work at any job. The attorneys of Alan M. Cass and Associates help people with long-term disabilities obtain the Social Security disability benefits they deserve.


- Personal Injury

A distracted driver talking on a cell phone slams into a car, leaving the other driver seriously injured. A store owner's failure to repair a set of crumbing steps causes a customer to fall and become injured. A bus driver fails to look both ways pulling into traffic and hits a pedestrian in the crosswalk. In all of these examples, the people who suffered personal injuries did nothing wrong. Their injuries were caused by the carelessness, recklessness or negligence of another.


- Auto Accident

If you were injured in a car accident, the personal injury attorneys at Alan M. Cass and Associates can help. Our experienced lawyers will examine your case and tell you whether you may be eligible to receive compensation through a personal injury or workers' compensation accident claim. We will clearly describe the steps in the legal process and aggressively pursue the full amount of compensation you are entitled to receive.


- Slip and Fall

A slip on a wet surface can result in painful sprains and fractures. A serious fall can cause a traumatic brain injury or a permanent injury to the back, neck or spine. The attorneys of Alan M. Cass and Associates will pursue maximum compensation for clients injured in slip and fall accidents and other types of premises liability claims, including those caused by negligent security or lack of lighting. We represent people who were injured at work, on private property or in a public place.


- Wrongful Death Claims

If you lost a loved one due to an accident, on-the-job injury or occupational disease, please accept our sincere sympathies for your loss. At Alan M. Cass and Associates, our lawyers and staff members have walked this path with many people. We know how difficult this time can be, and we will do everything within our power to be of assistance to you.
