Helping injured workers secure the benefits they are entitled to after a workplace injury.
If you were hurt on the job, you may be entitled to benefits for medical care and a portion of your lost wages, regardless of who was at fault. Shim Law Group, P.C. guides you through the workers' compensation process and protects your right to recover, so a claim is not delayed or denied over a technicality.
The system is meant to help injured workers, but insurers and employers do not always make it easy. Claims get disputed, benefits get cut off, and injured workers are often pressured to return before they are ready. We help you assert your rights at every stage.
We help you file correctly and on time, gather the medical support your claim needs, and push back when benefits are denied or terminated. When your injury involves a party other than your employer, we also evaluate whether you may have a separate injury claim.
Our attorneys are ready to review your workplace injury and answer your questions. Contact us today at (718) 878-1177 or fill out our online form for free.
No. Workers' compensation is generally a no-fault system, so you can be entitled to benefits even if the injury was not your employer's fault. What matters is that the injury is work related.
Usually workers' compensation is your exclusive remedy against your employer, but you may have a separate claim against a third party, such as a negligent contractor or equipment manufacturer. We evaluate both.
A denial or termination is not the end. These decisions can be challenged, and we help you gather the medical evidence and take the steps needed to pursue the benefits you are owed.
Workers' compensation attorney fees in New York are generally set and approved by the Workers' Compensation Board and paid out of awarded benefits, so you typically do not pay an upfront fee. We explain how it works during your consultation.
