Repetitive Stress Injuries
Many people underestimate the seriousness of repetitive stress injuries. However, if your job has caused such an injury, you are entitled to compensation just as you would be for any other work-related harm. These conditions develop over time, making them more challenging to prove—but not impossible with the right legal support.
If you believe repetitive motions at work have caused you harm, contact Savino & Smollar, P.C. We are New York’s premier Workers’ Compensation law firm, dedicated to getting results. With 100 years of combined experience, we fight for our clients’ rights.

What Is a Repetitive Stress Injury?
Repetitive stress injuries occur when continuous motions cause gradual damage to the tendons, muscles, and nerves. While
individual tasks may seem harmless, performing them repeatedly over time can lead to serious health issues.
One common example is carpal tunnel syndrome, which often affects those who type extensively without proper ergonomic
support. This condition impacts wrist and finger movement, making even simple tasks painful and difficult.
Common symptoms of repetitive stress injuries include:
- Swelling
- Weakness
- Moderate to severe pain
- Reduced range of motion
- Tingling or throbbing sensations
What may start as mild discomfort can worsen if the repetitive motion continues, potentially leading to an inability to perform
job duties.
How Can an Attorney Help?
If your injury stems from repetitive work-related activities, you may be eligible for Workers’ Compensation to cover medical
treatment and lost wages. However, proving these injuries can be difficult since they often lack immediate, visible symptoms.
At Savino & Smollar, P.C., we understand the legal process and the medical evaluations required to support your claim.
Insurance companies often rely on their medical experts, who may downplay your condition. We counter these tactics with
strong evidence and expert testimony, ensuring your case is handled fairly.
Repetitive stress injury claims require experienced legal representation. We are committed to standing up against big insurance
companies and fighting for the compensation you deserve.
