Bronx Workers Compensation Attorney

About Workers' Compensation

Workers' Compensation was set up by the State of New York to protect workers who are injured while employed.   However, it is a government agency, and this can mean confusion, complexity and difficulty in making the claim and receiving the compensation that you are due.  In most cases, a Bronx workers compensation lawyer who is skilled in this area of the law is of great benefit to the injured individual.  There are countless cases in which the injured party did not receive the compensation that they could have received as they were unaware of the types of claims that could have been made on their behalf.  At Katz, Leidman, Grossman, Wolfe & Freund, the firm has over 50 years of experience fighting for the rights of injured workers and getting the claims paid on their behalf.  The fee that is paid to the firm is awarded by the judge and is between 7 - 15% of what is paid.  The amount of the settlement or judgment can far exceed any percentage paid to the firm when you are represented by a skilled workers compensation lawyer.
