Call Today To Learn About Your Legal Rights After Suffering An Electrical Shock Injury In New York

New York does place time limits on your ability to claim workers’ compensation benefits and to file a personal injury lawsuit.  Because of these limits, known as the statute of limitations, it’s important to contact an experienced attorney as soon as possible to learn about your rights.  

At Proner & Proner, our electrical shock injury lawyers are dedicated to helping you recover the most compensation possible.  In fact, we don’t recover attorneys’ fees unless we win compensation in your case. Your initial consultation is free, so call or contact us online today to see how we can help.  Our lawyers are also fluent in Spanish and Italian.

Frequently Asked Questions About Claims For Electrical Shock Injury Claims In New York

Under New York law, you may have a legal right to compensation for electrical shock injuries even if you knew the job was dangerous.  A fair compensation award could include compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, long-term disability, future medical expenses, pain and suffering and more.  If you lost a loved one in a tragic electrocution accident, we will fight for compensation based upon that wrongful death. Compensation in a wrongful death case can include medical expenses, funeral and burial costs, and compensation for the loss of your loved one’s company and financial support.

In many cases, you might not immediately know whether you have a case—and that’s okay.  In fact, that’s the reason we offer all potential clients a free initial consultation. We’ll listen to what happened in your case and ask questions to gain a full understanding.  If someone else’s negligence contributed to your accident, we may pursue a personal injury lawsuit. If your workers’ compensation benefits have been denied or delayed, we’re here to help get the benefits you need.  Even if you don’t have all the evidence, we have the resources necessary to locate that evidence to build a strong case on your behalf.
