Bronx Work Injury Attorney
When you're hurt in the Bronx, we'll go to work for you
The Bronx is full of hardworking people, and no one goes to work expecting an injury. But injuries don't discriminate. Whether you work construction or a desk job, a work injury can have serious, even lifelong consequences. A Bronx work injury lawyer at Pasternack Tilker Ziegler Walsh Stanton & Romano, LLP can help you put your life back together.
We help Bronx workers with all the following job-related injuries and more:
- Broken bones
- Burns
- Sprains and strains
- Head and brain injuries
- Shoulder injuries
- Back injuries
- Muscle injuries
- Repetitive stress injuries (RSI)
- Job-related illnesses
- Lifting injuries
- Knee/ankle/leg injuries
Even a seemingly minor injury can have big consequences for your life. You might be out of work for weeks, months or even longer. Medical expenses can escalate quickly, especially if there are unforeseen complications. Under the law, if your injury was sustained at work, your employer is responsible for the full cost of reasonable and necessary medical treatment, plus partial replacement of lost wages. But actually getting workers' compensation can be surprisingly complicated.
Can you claim for an injury at work in the Bronx?
If you were hurt on the job in the Bronx, you may be eligible for financial benefits through a workers’ compensation claim or third-party work injury claim. Determining which claim is right for your situation and getting the financial benefits can be complicated.
That's where we come in. We know how to investigate your injury and prove it was sustained on the job. We have the experience and resources to advocate for the medical treatment you need and the full compensation you deserve for your injuries. And we have a proven track record of results - over 100,000 clients represented and billions recovered for workers in the Bronx, the Five Boroughs and statewide.
How long do I have to sue for work-related injuries?
If you’re suing a negligent third-party after a work accident (e.g., vehicle driver, contractor, or machine manufacturer) in New York, you have up to three years from the date of the incident to file a claim. This type of work injury claim typically covers medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, property damage, and rehabilitation costs.
If you miss the three-year deadline, you may not be able to obtain compensation. The sooner you act, the easier it will be for an attorney to investigate your Bronx work accident, gather evidence to support your claim, and establish a link between your injury and the incident you were involved in.
