Our work injury attorneys in NYC stand up for the rights of union employees. Union workers who are injured on-the-job are entitled to workers’ compensation (workers’ comp) benefits and additional third-party compensation when applicable. Sometimes, however, injured union workers do not report their injuries because of concerns about losing their jobs or union benefits.

Gallina, LLP, our work injury attorneys can pursue your work injury claim or wrongful death claim and assist you with union benefits. We have experience with collective bargaining agreements and member benefits. We can protect your right to third-party injury damages to ensure you receive the financial compensation you deserve.
