Queens Workers' Compensation Attorney Keetick L. Sanchez

Queens workers' compensation attorney Keetick L. Sanchez (https://accidentlawyer-queens.com/how-long-do-you-have-to-report-an-injury-at-work-in-ny/) has recently published an informative article outlining the critical time frames injured employees must adhere to when reporting workplace injuries in New York. This essential read, titled "How Long Do You Have to Report an Injury at Work in NY?" is vital for any worker facing the aftermath of a workplace accident.

Understanding the time-sensitive nature of workers' compensation claims is paramount, as any delay can jeopardize an individual's ability to receive due benefits. "Workers' compensation is a very important benefit for workers who have suffered injuries on the job," says the Queens workers' compensation attorney. "Without these insurance benefits, individuals may be burdened with paying for medical costs for their injuries out of pocket."

According to the Queens workers' compensation attorney, New York law requires injured workers to report their injury to their immediate supervisor within 30 days of the incident. This quick action is not just a legal formality; it can significantly influence the speed at which workers' compensation benefits begin.

Keetick L. Sanchez emphasizes the importance of consulting a legal professional to navigate the complexities of the system. "Seeking the help of a workers' compensation lawyer is crucial as they have the knowledge to navigate the complex legal process on behalf of individuals," advises Sanchez.

The piece further clarifies that the statute of limitations for filing a formal workers' compensation claim in New York extends up to two years from the date of injury. This identical timeframe applies to subsequent injuries or complications arising from the original workplace accident. For work-related illnesses, which may have delayed symptoms, the window remains at two years from the date the employee recognizes the link between their condition and their job.

Sanchez warns, "Adhering to these timelines is essential for preserving individuals' rights to benefits." She urges injured workers to report any incidents promptly, regardless of the injury's severity, to protect their rights to workers' compensation.

The article also discusses the various benefits that workers' compensation can cover, such as medical care expenses, weekly cash benefits, costs associated with doctor appointments, and rehabilitation benefits for those who become disabled due to their injuries. An important aspect that Sanchez highlights is the potential for additional claims if a third party is involved in the workplace accident, such as through a personal injury lawsuit or a product liability claim.

Furthermore, the article touches upon the "workers' compensation 90-day rule," which mandates injured workers to consult with a doctor at least once every 90 days to maintain their lost wage benefits. This underscores the significance of continuous medical evaluation and the role it plays in the workers' compensation process.

For those who have been injured at work, understanding the application of the workers' compensation 90-day rule is crucial. Sanchez recommends, "Consulting a Queens workers' compensation lawyer can provide individuals with the necessary guidance and ensure they meet the deadlines for reporting their injury, protecting their rights, and pursuing their claim effectively."

If an individual has sustained an on-the-job injury, it is imperative to know their rights and explore all options of compensation. Taking the step to read this article and reaching out for legal help can be the first move toward securing their financial stability and well-being during recovery.
