Back and Neck InjuriesNew York Workers' Compensation ClaimsBack Injury & Neck Injury AttorneysSpinal injuries are common but often debilitating for the injured worker. Employees with back or neck injuries may appear healthy and still be able to walk, but suffer excruciating pain when attempting to resume their job. At The Klein Law Group, P.C., we represent injured workers throughout the New York City metro area in obtaining proper medical care and handling every aspect of their New York workers' compensation claim or appeal. We fight to ensure that all medical treatment is approved, including ongoing care by a chiropractor, orthopedic doctor, or physical therapist. Our attorneys are concerned about your recovery, and work with your health care providers to make sure you are not forced back to work too soon. A short-term disability aggravated by returning to work before you are healed can result in permanent disability. We have handled every type of back injury, neck injury, and treatment:
A common scenario involving back and neck injuries is determination by an Independent Medical Examiner (IME) that the disability is minimal or should not prevent the worker from returning to the job. We will aggressively represent you at a Workers' Compensation Board hearing to dispute incorrect IME findings. Our experienced attorneys can often negotiate a benefit rate acceptable to both parties. If we can't come to agreement, we are prepared to carry your claim to an appeals review panel or take your case to trial. Contact Us |
