We all deserve a safe place to work, but unfortunately, workplace accidents happen all too often. Whether you’ve been injured on the job or developed an occupational illness or disease related to your job conditions, you can access high-quality medical care and a wage stipend through the New York workers’ compensation program. Though receiving the benefits you're entitled to isn’t always straightforward. If your employer denies your claim or you face retaliation for filing a workers’ comp claim, we can help. Contact Hurwitz, Whitcher & Molloy today for a consultation with our Buffalo, NY workers’ comp lawyer.
Workers’ compensation is employer-paid insurance that provides comprehensive medical care for injured workers. It ensures workers can have a better chance for a full recovery from an on-the-job injury. Your benefits include coverage for medical care, specialist rehabilitation, and medications. Workers’ comp also provides partial wage benefits to help you pay your bills if you have to miss work. If you’re unable to go back to your old job because your workplace injury led to a disability, you may also receive vocational retraining to prepare you for a job that suits your changed abilities.
New York state law requires almost all employers to carry workers’ compensation insurance. If your employer doesn’t have this coverage and is in violation of the law, our legal team can help file a lawsuit for compensation for your workplace injury and other losses. Or, if you have had a valid claim minimized or denied, our Buffalo workers’ comp lawyer can appeal the claim on your behalf. Finally, if your employer retaliates against you for filing a claim, we can help you get your job back or secure compensation for your lost wages and damage to your career path. Don’t delay, call Hurwitz, Whitcher & Molloy today to schedule your case review.
Beginning with our founder, Melvyn Hurwitz, we have been representing injured people in the Buffalo area and Western New York for more than 50 years. We concentrate on Workers’ Compensation, Social Security Disability and Personal Injury cases.
Our experienced and courteous staff of attorneys and legal assistants will give you and your case the serious attention and effort you deserve. We are committed to providing you with our time, attention and experienced counsel.
