Workers' Compensation Lawyers
Serving Long Island, Queens and New York City
Most people cannot even imagine the hardships caused by a sudden loss of their hearing or vision. Both are life-changing events that make it difficult to work, travel or even take care of one's personal needs. When these losses are the result of an on-the-job injury or illness, it is possible to obtain Workers' Compensation benefits for medical expenses, lost wages and permanent disability, even if your hearing or vision loss is only partial.
Helping Thousands of People Obtain Workers' Compensation Benefits Since 1992
Experienced and Effective Injury Lawyers
At Terry Katz & Associates, PC, our attorneys have helped thousands of clients obtain compensation after suffering on-the-job vision or hearing loss as a result of:
When an explosion, persistent noise, chemical exposure, slip, trip and fall, power tool malfunction, fire or other injury or illness leaves a victim with total or partial vision or hearing loss, our lawyers will litigate to obtain maximum compensation. Even if you do not suffer a complete loss of hearing or vision, you may still be entitled to medical treatment and monetary benefits, including a lump-sum award for your lost vision or hearing.
Seeking Maximum Compensation for Your Injuries
People who have suffered vision or hearing loss because of workplace accidents may be eligible to file third-party personal injury claims. If your vision or hearing loss is the result of someone else's negligence or a defective product, you may have a claim for a third-party lawsuit. If you are permanently disabled and unable to work as a result of your injury, you may be entitled to Social Security Disability benefits. We evaluate each case to determine whether a client would benefit from this type of legal action.
