Defending Employers Podcast: Episode 139

Defense of Employee Status in New York Workers’ Compensation Claims

In this episode, Greg Lois leads a discussion on employee status. We look to recent case law decisions on employee status that answer the question, “Is the Claimant My Employee?”, discuss tactical and strategic considerations in challenging employment, and examine independent contractor status in New York workers’ compensation cases. This audio podcast is from a live webinar provided to the Firm’s clients on Monday, April 20, 2020.

New York Workers’ Compensation Defense at Lois Law Firm

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.
