New York City Knee Injury Lawyers

New York City Lawyers Representing Clients with Work Related Knee Injuries

Jobs that require a great deal of standing, lifting, or moving around can, over time, place a great deal of stress on a worker’s knees. Inflammation of the tendons or small sacs of fluid that lubricate the knee can make it difficult to perform regular job functions that place pressure on the knee. Likewise, dislocations and tears of the meniscus can result in months of short-term disability.

Unfortunately, employers are not always willing to provide injured workers with the compensation they need and are entitled to. At the personal injury law office of The Orlow Firm, our New York personal injury attorneys work with knee injury specialists and physical therapists in establishing the scope and nature of our client’s work-related knee injury.

If you’re suffering from a work-related knee injury, contact the NYC personal injury lawyers at the law office of The Orlow Firm today to schedule a free consultation to learn how we can help you.
