Fighting for Injured Workers:
Experienced Guidance Through Every Step

If you have been injured on the job in New York, you have the right to pursue workers’ compensation benefits under state law. These benefits may cover medical treatment, lost wages, and injury-related costs.

Unfortunately, the workers’ compensation system is often complex, and many injured workers face delays, partial payments, or outright denials of valid claim

Common Workplace Injuries We Handle

Falls and Electrocutions

Falls and electrical incidents can lead to serious injuries and long recovery periods. We work to secure benefits and proper medical care from the start.

Repetitive Stress and Overuse Injuries

Workplace injuries are not always sudden. We help workers pursue claims for injuries that develop over time through physical strain or repeated motion.

Toxic Exposure and Hazardous Conditions

Exposure to unsafe work environments can cause long-term medical issues. We help document your condition and build a claim supported by medical evidence.

Vehicle and Equipment Accidents

Crashes and machinery incidents often create insurance disputes and delays. We help protect your claim and pursue the benefits you are entitled to.

Heavy Lifting and Physical Strain

Back injuries and strain-related injuries are common and frequently disputed. We help ensure your claim is properly filed and defended.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I Need an Attorney to Obtain Workers’ Compensation Benefits in New York?

You are not required to hire an attorney to pursue workers’ compensation benefits. However, employers and insurance carriers are represented by experienced professionals who understand the system and its rules. Injured workers who attempt to navigate the process alone are often at a disadvantage and may unknowingly jeopardize their claims.

Working with an experienced workers’ compensation attorney gives you an advocate who understands the law, the procedures, and the strategies insurers use to limit or deny benefits. Our firm ensures your rights are protected and that your claim is pursued properly from the start.

What Are My Options If My Workers’ Compensation Claim Was Denied?

A denial does not mean your case is over. Many valid workers’ compensation claims are initially denied, in whole or in part. New York law provides an appeals process that allows a judge to review your case and, if necessary, permits further appeals through the courts.

The hearings and appeals process can be complex and time-sensitive. Having experienced legal representation is critical to presenting the strongest possible case. The Battiloro Law Group handles appeals and hearings with the same level of preparation and persistence as initial claims, pursuing every available option to secure the benefits our clients deserve.
