Workers Compensation Law
Watson Bennett represents workers’ compensation insurance carriers and self-insured employers on any issue that might arise in an injured employee’s claim and in any forum where its defense might be required. We aggressively litigate claims at the Board and draft effective appeals and rebuttals for submission to the Board and Full Board. We have a wealth of experience perfecting and defending appeals at the Third Department and Court of Appeals. Our practice includes helping employers and carriers settle their claims by way of §32 and pre-trying cases with Special Funds Conservation Committee on §15(8) liability. Watson Bennett also offers the unique ability to maximize lien recovery from a third party action and to defend or prosecute orders to show cause or motions in Supreme or Federal District Court under WCL §29.
