Olivia Barna has been promoted to Senior Associate at Lois Law Firm, one of the most respected and fastest-growing employment defense firms in the nation. With years of experience as an accomplished negotiator and litigator, Olivia Barna has focused expertise in worker’s compensation cases. Barna and her paralegal provide a client-centered, assertive approach which has yielded favorable results for the Firm’s clients.

Through meticulous preparation and litigation planning, many cases are won before they enter a courtroom. “Olivia’s expertise in representing employers, self-insureds, and carriers in workers’ compensation matters is unrivaled,” says Managing partner Greg Lois. “I’m proud of what Olivia has accomplished for her clients and we are excited to see her progress her career at LOIS.”

LOIS has established a reputation as a powerful advocate for employers who are defending catastrophic injury cases due to a broad range of accidents, including motor vehicle accidents, construction injuries, and death claims.

The Lois Law Firm is known in legal and professional circles as a “go-to” firm for successful defense of workers’ compensation – a practice upon which the founders built and staked the firm’s reputation. It is the only firm in New York specializing in the employer-side defense of workers’ compensation cases and refusing other types of defense cases.

Learn More About New York Workers’ Compensation Defense at LOIS

We represent insurance carriers, self-insured employers, third party claim administrators, and employers before the New York State Workers' Compensation Board. We handle cases from cradle-to-grave. We want to be by your side, moving cases aggressively to closure from the start of litigation all the way through to settlement.

We only assign one attorney and one paralegal to each case. This means that your team members always have one contact to go to for any questions. We do not have 'hearing attorney' or a 'negotiation attorney' or 'appeal department' or anything else! All of our attorneys handle all of those roles – meaning cases are not 'passed around' as they move through the litigation process. Your risk professional or adjuster always knows who is assigned – because the attorney does not change.
