Serious injuries at work do not only happen on construction sites. Warehouses, kitchens, hospitals, stores, offices and the roads between them all produce accidents that can change a working person’s life in a moment.
Workers’ compensation may cover medical care and part of your lost wages — but it does not pay for pain and suffering, and it is rarely the whole story. When the negligence of someone other than your employer played a part — a property owner, a contractor on the same site, a driver, or the maker of a defective machine — you may be entitled to pursue full damages in a separate lawsuit. The Raimondo Law Firm has represented injured Long Island workers for nearly 40 years. Call (631) 471-1222 for a free consultation; there is no fee unless we win.

Comp Claim, Lawsuit — or Both?
Many injured workers are told workers’ compensation is their only option. Often it is not. We review every workplace injury for third-party claims that can recover what compensation benefits never will — full lost earnings, pain and suffering, and the long-term cost of a serious injury. Pursuing both correctly, at the same time, is exactly the kind of case we have handled for decades.
