Third Party Work Injury Claims Attorney

When you’re injured at work, workers’ compensation is usually only part of the story. In many cases, you may also have a third party claim against someone other than your employer who caused or contributed to your injury. At Steenberg Law Firm, we help injured workers pursue these additional claims so they can recover significantly more compensation.

What Is a Third Party Work Injury Claim?

A third party claim allows you to seek damages from a negligent contractor, property owner, equipment manufacturer, or another party whose carelessness led to your injury. Unlike workers’ compensation, a successful third party claim can compensate you for pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, and other damages that workers’ comp does not cover.

We Handle Third Party Claims In These Common Situations:

Construction site accidents (falls from heights, scaffolding collapses, etc.)
Defective machinery or equipment
Unsafe work conditions created by another company
Negligent property owners or general contractors
Motor vehicle accidents while working (delivery drivers, etc.)

New York Labor Law Protections

We have deep experience with Labor Law §§ 200, 240, and 241(6) cases. These laws were designed to protect construction workers, and we know how to use them to build strong third party claims.

Why You Need an Experienced Attorney for Third Party Claims

Insurance companies and defense lawyers fight hard against these cases. Having an attorney who understands both workers’ compensation and third party liability can make a major difference in the final outcome of your case.

Working With Both Claims

We coordinate your workers’ compensation case and your third party claim so they work together rather than against each other. Our goal is to help you recover the maximum compensation possible for your injury.
