Areas of Law

Additional Areas of Law: Supplemental Security Income; New York City and State Retirement Disability.

Areas of Law Description

Our areas of practice include:

New York State Workers’ Compensation - When New York State workers are injured on the job, they are covered—for medical expenses, lost wages, and other benefits—by Workers’ Compensation. When an injury claim is denied, the injured worker may require the services of a skilled attorney to guide them through the appeals process and fight for the benefits they deserve.

Social Security Disability - Social Security Disability is a safety net to assist those who are severely injured and can no longer work. Eligibility is based on the applicant’s prior work history in a taxable job prior to the disability. The application process is complex and Social Security Disability benefits are often denied to first-time applicants. The appeals process is long and complicated and those who obtain the services of a skilled attorney may have a better chance of getting the initial judgment overturned and ultimately receiving benefits.

Supplemental Security Income - Supplemental Security Income is a need-based federal program—financed with general funds from the U.S. Treasury—that makes monthly cash payments to assist people with very limited income and few resources. First-time applicants are often denied benefits. Those who hire an experienced attorney to help them through the appeals process may have a better chance of getting the initial judgment overturned and ultimately receiving benefits.

Federal Workers’ Compensation - When Federal employees are injured or become ill on the job, they are covered by Federal Workers’ Compensation. This program provides wage replacement benefits, medical treatment, vocational rehabilitation, and other benefits to injured workers or their dependents. Federal Workers’ Compensation appeals are complicated and those who hire an experienced attorney may have a better chance of obtaining the benefits they deserve.

New York City and State Retirement Disability - New York City or New York State workers who can no longer perform their job due to illness, accident, or disability may be entitled to retirement disability. Attorneys who specialize in disability law have the best chance of helping injured workers receive their benefits.
