We Protect Injured Workers' Rights to Compensation
Any disfigurement causes physical and emotional trauma, but facial disfigurements can be especially traumatic. In addition to the possibility of losing the ability to see or hear, facial disfigurements may significantly alter a person's looks. This may cause psychological damage as the person adjusts to life after the injury.
The Robert A. Koenigsberg Law Offices represents workers who have suffered facial disfigurements. Our lawyers provide experienced, compassionate representation during this difficult time. We know New York workers' compensation law and will fight to recover maximum benefits for you. For a free consultation with a New York City facial disfigurement benefits attorney, please call 212-964-9292 or contact us online.
Payments for Permanent Disfigurements to the Face, Head and Neck
Under New York workers' compensation law, you may be entitled to additional benefits, up to a maximum of $20,000, if you suffer a serious, permanent disfigurement to the head, face or neck. Disfigurement may include permanent scarring on the face or may involve damage to the eyes, ears, nose or lips.
Each case is unique, however, and it is recommended that you work with an attorney to obtain the benefits you need. Please call our New York City office at 212-964-9292 to schedule an appointment with a Bronx disability benefits attorney today.
