WelcomeOn March 13, 2007, sweeping changes to New York's workers' compensation system were signed into law by Governor Eliot Spitzer. The wording of the new statute is vague and unclear on some topics, not specific enough on others. Its full effects are not yet known. What is clear is that short-term benefits for some injured workers have been increased, but only at the expense of long-term benefits for others. The question is: Where does this leave you as an injured worker right now? Here is a good place to start. Even though New York workers' compensation laws have changed, the quality of our representation and the value that our experience provides have not. If you've been injured, contact our workers' comp lawyers for a free consultation. At the Law Office of Robert Koenigsberg, we have been dedicated to protecting injured workers' rights in New York City and its surrounding areas for more than a decade. The new workers' compensation statute does nothing to change that. In fact, our experience is probably more valuable to you now than ever before. In addition to workers' comp, our attorneys also handle personal injury claims related to construction accidents, provide consulting services to employers, and help injured people apply for and obtain Social Security Disability benefits.
