Disease & Occupational Injury
Claims Assistance

New York’s Workers’ Compensation system covers injuries and illnesses related to work activities. This no-fault system helps injured workers cover medical bills and maintain financial stability during challenging times. While it may seem straightforward, filing a claim on your own often leads to denial. Insurance companies know that individuals without legal representation may not fully understand their rights—and they aim to pay out as little as possible.

At Savino & Smollar, P.C., we have been advocating for injured workers since the 1950s. If you suffer from severe back pain, repetitive motion injuries, or occupational diseases, you are entitled to compensation. With our deep understanding of the New York Workers’ Compensation system, we know how to navigate its complexities and avoid common pitfalls that could delay or jeopardize your claim.

Filing a Claim—What You Need to Know

If you experience a work-related injury or illness, you must notify your employer within 30 days. The next step is filing a claim with the Workers’ Compensation Board—but this is only the beginning. To maximize your compensation, you need experienced legal representation. Our attorneys will handle the process, ensuring you receive the benefits you deserve.

Full Financial Recovery—We Fight for You

A doctor will evaluate your condition, but the insurance company may require an exam by their doctor, who often downplays the severity of your injuries. This is just one example of the challenges you may face.
Our legal team is here to support you every step of the way. With over 100 years of combined experience, we have successfully taken on powerful insurance companies and understand their tactics. You don’t have to fight alone—we’re here to protect your rights.

We Handle All Types of Occupational Claims

Legal Assistance in Multiple Languages

We understand that not all injured workers speak English fluently. To better serve our New York City community, we offer legal assistance in Spanish, Russian, and Polish. When dealing with a serious injury, communicating in your native language can make all the difference.
