This expansion directly addresses the increasing number of workplace injury claims seen across key sectors like construction, healthcare, transportation, and manufacturing.

A Legacy of Advocacy: Over Nine Decades of Service
Founded in 1933, Markhoff & Mittman, P.C. boasts over nine decades of experience specializing in personal injury and workers’ compensation matters. With offices strategically located in New York, the firm represents clients in a diverse array of claims, including workplace accidents, construction site incidents, repetitive stress injuries, and occupational illnesses.
The firm’s legal team expertly handles cases governed by the New York Workers’ Compensation Law, as well as third-party liability claims that may arise from workplace events. This comprehensive approach ensures clients receive the maximum compensation they are entitled to.
Navigating New York Workers’ Compensation Claims
Workers’ compensation claims in Goshen, NY, are subject to specific procedural requirements. Injured employees must report workplace incidents promptly and file claims through the New York State Workers’ Compensation Board. Benefits typically include coverage for medical treatment, partial wage replacement, and disability classifications determined through medical evaluations and statutory guidelines.
In certain situations, injured workers may be eligible to pursue third-party claims in addition to workers’ compensation benefits. These claims can be filed against contractors, equipment manufacturers, property owners, or any other party whose actions contributed to the incident. Successfully litigating these claims requires presenting compelling evidence, such as accident reports, safety records, and expert assessments of workplace conditions.
Comprehensive Legal Representation
Markhoff & Mittman, P.C. provides robust representation to clients in hearings before administrative law judges and in court proceedings when necessary. The firm’s attorneys meticulously review medical records, employment documentation, and insurance correspondence to ensure full compliance with applicable regulations. They also handle appeals of denied claims and disputes regarding benefit classifications and duration.
Adapting to Industry Trends and Legal Changes
The expansion of services in Goshen reflects broader industry trends focused on workplace safety oversight and regulatory compliance. Increased construction and infrastructure projects in the Hudson Valley have led to a rise in claims related to falls, equipment accidents, and structural hazards. Similarly, the healthcare and logistics sectors have seen an increase in injuries linked to lifting, repetitive motion, and transportation incidents.
New York labor laws, particularly those concerning scaffolding and gravity-related injuries, significantly impact liability determinations in construction-related claims. Courts carefully evaluate whether statutory protections apply and whether adequate safety measures were in place at the time of the incident. These legal standards often differ from workers’ compensation proceedings and can influence the amount of damages recoverable in civil actions.
Dedicated to Client Support and Transparency
Beyond litigation, Markhoff & Mittman, P.C. offers informational consultations to individuals seeking clarity regarding their rights following a workplace injury. Fee structures in workers’ compensation cases are subject to approval by the Workers’ Compensation Board, while contingency arrangements in personal injury cases are governed by state regulations, ensuring transparency and fairness.
The firm remains committed to monitoring legislative developments affecting injured workers, including adjustments to benefit rates and procedural rules issued by regulatory authorities. Maintaining a thorough understanding of these changes is crucial to effectively managing cases and advocating for clients.
