Injured Workers Can Depend On Our Work Injury Attorneys
Work may not be your favorite place to be but it is supposed to be a safe place. Despite this fact, many Ossining residents leave for work each day only to return home with serious injuries that will cost them thousands of dollars to treat and prevent them from returning to their job.
Workers’ compensation insurance may help to pay for medical expenses and perhaps even a small fraction of lost wages, but ultimately, it’s simply not enough for the average employee. However, a work injury lawsuit, filed against the party whose negligence resulted in the injury can provide full compensation for both past and future:
- Medical Expenses
- Lost Wages
- Physical Pain and Suffering
- Emotional Trauma
The legal team at Banville Law can help you determine if you are eligible to pursue legal action. If you are, our legal team will be there by your side through each step of the legal process. To learn more about how we assist our clients, contact our local Ossining office today.
Our Lawyers Can Help With Your Workers’ Comp Claim
Workers’ compensation should be simple. Injured workers should be able to apply for the benefits they need and they should be offered coverage. Unfortunately, insurance companies understand that the more complicated a process is, the less likely an applicant is to follow through with their claim, saving the company money.
It might seem excessive to speak with an attorney for an insurance claim but without the help of an experienced attorney who can catch any mistakes made on the initial claim and speak with the insurance company on your behalf, a claim may be denied. An appeal can be filed but frequently, the appeal will need to go before a judge. In New York, the court backlog is so long that many workers’ comp appeals take more than two years to reach a courtroom.
Banville Law has helped many injured workers with both an initial claim and an appeal. Don’t hesitate to call our legal team today to get the process of recovering compensation started.
You May Be Owed Significant Compensation After An Auto Accident In Westchester County
An auto accident can literally turn your world upside down. One minute you’re on your way to your destination and the next, you’re in physical pain and trying to figure out how you’ll be able to function in the future. Auto insurance is supposed to help you recover financially after an accident, but did you know that the state required minimum coverage in New York is typically not enough to cover the medical treatments required by an accident victim?
Car, bus, and truck accident lawsuits help accident victims recover full compensation for medical expenses, lost earnings, physical pain, and emotional trauma. In instances where the victim dies, their loved ones may be able to pursue justice on their behalf. Eligible family members typically include the parents, children, and spouses of the deceased, however, other dependants may also be able to file.
The total amount that can be obtained through a car accident lawsuit varies between plaintiffs since no two plaintiffs experience the same losses.
Let Banville Law’s auto accident lawyers review your case. Then, together, we can fight aggressively for the compensation that can help you rebuild your life.

Don’t Let A Slip & Fall Accident Keep You Down – Call Our Local Law Firm
Despite being called an “accident”, the harsh reality is that most slip and fall accident could have been prevented if the responsible party had just taken action. In fact, property owners are required by law to take regular action by inspecting their property at reasonable intervals to determine if a slip and fall hazard exists. If a defect is discovered, they must then either immediately fix it or take steps to warn those who might come into contact with that defect.
Slip and fall accidents are commonly caused by:
- loose wires
- broken steps and handrails
- spilled liquids
- snow and ice
- loose carpeting
- broken sidewalks
While some victims are able to simply walk away with little to no pain, others must be treated for:
- traumatic brain injury
- spinal damage
- broken bones
- nerve damage
- implament
If you are dealing with the financial burden of a slip and fall injury, contact Banville Law. Our consultations are free.

Let Our Lawyers Help You Rebuild Your Life After A Construction Accident
You’ve spent your days helping to build the great community in Ossining but now that you’ve been seriously injured in a construction accident, you need help.

How can you afford to live and pay for your medical bills?
A construction accident lawsuit may be the answer.
