You May Be Entitled to More Than Workers’ Compensation
Many construction workers file workers’ compensation claims, but the benefits often fall short of covering the true cost of a life-changing injury. Under New York law, you may also have the right to pursue a third-party civil claim against subcontractors, manufacturers, property owners, or others whose negligence caused your injury.
You may have various methods of compensation available to help support you during recovery.
Successful third-party claims often result in significantly higher compensation than workers’ compensation benefits alone, including:
Full lost wages and future earning capacity
Pain and suffering (not covered by workers’ compensation)
Specialized medical care and long-term rehabilitation
If you have been hurt on the job, we can help you navigate your legal options.
