Health Insurance Matching Program Defense at LOIS

Christopher Major successfully defends HIMP-1 claims in New York. The total demand was $250,000 over six claims. We settled all six in one day for $21,000 total: three of them for $2,500, two for $0, and one for $13,500.

None of them even came near our client’s potential liability under the New York State fee schedules, which is what the client was expecting to pay. When the adjuster took the settlements to management for final approval, they were baffled at the low settlement amounts and couldn’t fathom how two cases settled for $0!

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.
