Long Island Lawyer Presents Seminar on New York Workers' Compensation Claims

As I have done for a number of years now, I will be lecturing tomorrow at the Hilton Hotel in Melville to my fellow NY workers compensation lawyers on "Practice Tips & Ethical Considerations" under the New York State Workers Compensation Law. 

I will be sharing info in my materials on the 2007 NY Workers" Compensation Reform Law including a table explaining the new "caps" on Permanent Partial Disabilities and the new maximum workers' compensation benefit rate, which is $739.83 for all accidents on or after July 1, 2010.

This is a great opportunity for personal injury lawyers to get a basic grounding in the 2007 reform changes and for other New York workers' compensation lawyers to sharpen their skills while earning required Continuing Legal Education credits.  Hope to see you there!
