COVID-19, also known as coronavirus, will go down in history as one of humanity’s greatest challenges. Chances are you or someone you know has contracted this highly contagious virus. If any of your loved ones have fallen ill or passed away after testing positive for coronavirus, you should know legal recourse is available. Our legal team is here to fiercely advocate on your behalf, ensuring justice is served.
The coronavirus pandemic has taken a toll on New Yorkers and just about everyone else in the world. In particular, this virus has caused widespread suffering amongst those who work in the medical community. The heroic professionals who sacrifice their self-interest to provide care to others were that much more likely to contract the virus simply because they helped individuals who brought this contagious virus into hospitals, medical clinics, physicians’ offices and other medical facilities. If you have a relative, colleague, friend or acquaintance who contracted coronavirus and suffered or even died, steer them in our direction. Our legal team will zealously advocate coronavirus victims’ behalf and also on behalf of their relatives to obtain financial compensation that rights this egregious wrong. Whether your loved one has passed away, suffered considerable pain, spent time in the hospital or was negatively affected by the virus in another way, our law firm can help.
There is a common misconception that there is no avenue of legal recourse following the contraction of coronavirus, also known as COVID-19. If you, a relative or friend contracted the virus as a result of your work activities, you should know legal assistance is available. Our attorneys are more than willing to advocate on your behalf to ensure you are provided with the maximum financial compensation, the durable medical equipment you or a loved one need and additional medical assistance through the New York State workers’ compensation system.
Meet with us, tell us the facts of your unique situation and we will do everything in our power to prove there is a causal relationship between your or your loved one’s coronavirus contraction and workplace activities. This causal relationship is necessary to prove the virus was contracted while performing work-related activities, setting the stage for you or your loved one to qualify for workers’ compensation coverage. It is quite possible qualifying for such coverage will lead to considerable indemnity payments that help you and your family maintain your quality of life after this unfortunate medical crisis.
Furthermore, if one of your loved ones passed away after contracting the virus at work or while performing work-related activities, there is the potential to obtain considerable financial compensation that at least partially makes up for the lost income. This compensation might make the difference between living in comfort and living in crushing poverty that ultimately adds salt to the wound of losing a loved one to the virus. Our legal team is here to do everything possible to ensure you and your family are provided with the maximum possible financial compensation, ensuring the loss of your loved one does not devastate your family’s finances. We understand your family is struggling during this difficult period of time. Lean on us for assistance and you will rest easy knowing you have done everything in your power to maximize your financial compensation through the workers’ compensation system.
Losing a loved one to the virus or suffering considerable financial losses as a result of a positive test that limits your or your loved one's ability to work is difficult enough. Attempting to move forward without financial compensation is even more challenging. However, the workers' compensation system provides medical treatment at no cost to the injured worker, wage replacement benefits for work missed as a result of a positive test and additional compensation. In fact, if an employee passes away as a result of contracting coronavirus while performing work-related duties, the family of that decedent might be eligible for financial compensation in the form of death benefits. Though a workers' compensation judge will make the final ruling as to whether such financial benefits are awarded, you can greatly improve your argument with the assistance of our attorneys. Meet with our legal team to go over the facts of your case and we will create a legal strategy that proves the illness or death resulting from contracting coronavirus is tied to workplace activities.
