Re: accident at work

It depends. In NY you cannot sue your employer for on the job injuries except for very limited circumstances. I need more information to give you a helpful answer. Depending on the facts there may be other defendants who are not your employer who we may be able to sue. What I think you should do is contact me, Pasquale Calcagno, Esq., for a free consultation at 1(800)WE-FIGHT and visit us on the web at www.1800wefight.com for helpful resources that can aid you in your time of need.
