Workers’ Compensation Laws
The State of New York has laws to protect injured workers. This law allows individuals to make a claim to pay their medical bills, wage loss, and other types of claims depending upon the degree of the injury and what the effects on the victim’s life. When a serious injury occurs, these costs can be very high, particularly in disfiguring, catastrophic or cases in which the victim loses a limb, sight, hearing or cognitive abilities. These cases are devastating to the families and the individual never is able to function in life as they once did. The compensation or settlement could be extremely large in such a case, particularly if long-term medical care is required. Various types of claims can be made in such cases, including wage loss, pain and suffering and other monetary claims for damages.
