IF YOU HAVE BEEN INJURED CALL JAMES J. CORBETT, P.C. NOW AT 516-679-9494.

Even when a person is covered by workers compensation, frequently the circumstances of the accident give rise to a claim against some party other than the employer. Any workplace injury should be investigated for other potential compensation as the damages allowed by workers' compensation can be inadequate. These third-party claims can arise against subcontractors at construction sites, manufacturers of equipment and machinery or their operators, property owners, operators of motor vehicles or on rare occasions, against co-workers or supervisors.
