A New York Workers’ Compensation Webinar

Appeals of New York Workers’ Compensation Board Decisions

Two attorneys cover the fundamentals of appeals from Board decisions. Presenters Declan Gourley and Joseph Melchionne have years of experience representing employers and carriers before the Board.

The presentation is designed to help the attendee answer the following questions:

  • “Should we appeal the Law Judge’s Decision in a workers’ compensation claim?” and
  • “Does filing the appeal create a stay?” and
  • “What are the tactical reasons for appealing the Law Judge?”
  • “What will the appeal cost?”

At the end of the presentation, the attendees will have a basic understanding of the appeals process, tactical aspects of appeals (stays), and the costs of the various types of appeals available.

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.
