I have been specializing in the area of Workers’ Compensation Law for nearly two decades. I have successfully handled hearings, trials and depositions on claims for Workers’ Compensation throughout New York City, Long Island and the lower Hudson region.

My advocacy on these claims has most exclusively been in the interest and claim of the injured worker. However, I also have experience in handling proceedings on the insurance carrier/employer end as well. Throughout my many years of practice in this field I have gained invaluable insight into how the insurance companies and self-insured employers operate within the New York State Workers’ Compensation landscape. It is worth noting that this landscape has profoundly changed in or about the last decade. My direct day in and day out litigation participation in voluminous claims impacted by sweeping changes has enabled me to assess where a particular claim is headed in terms of potential monetary outcome or otherwise.

In addition to the litigation of my own files, many dozens of firms throughout the lower portion of New York State have entrusted me to handle hearing, trial or deposition litigation on their behalf in an of-counsel role.

Testimonials of my own clients will speak for themselves in terms of the personable service I render in a professional manner. My goal is to achieve a favorable outcome for the injured worker, within the context of her/his claim for compensation. Most often there is much battling with the insurance carrier/employer in moving forward on these claims. Additionally, navigating the claim through the Workers’ Compensation Board process itself has become a heightened challenge. In this current context and climate it is in your best interest to have a skilled compensation attorney that has experienced the multitude of litigation battles with a perspective that always remains end result focused.
