Terry Katz & Associates, P.C. For over 30 years, we have stayed committed to our purpose. An injury presents many difficulties. The process of healing can be lengthy and costly.

Since 1992, Terry Katz & Associates, PC, has helped over 25,000 New York workers injured on-the-job and those rendered unable to continue their careers, obtain the workers' compensation and disability benefits they deserve. A Law Firm For The Working Class

Terry Katz & Associates, P.C., opened its offices in 1992 with a single intention: to provide legal assistance to injured individuals in Long

Island and New York City. The presence of pain creates routine tasks — getting out of bed or walking down stairs — surprisingly difficult. There are doctor appointments and doctors' bills. You may become incapable of working and losing your source of income in the short- or long-term. If you are confronting such difficulties, we are here to support you.

DYK workplace injuries peak in July and August? ☀️

In New York, workers' comp covers part-time, seasonal, and 1099 workers from day one. No matter how you're paid.

Here's what NY workers on gig, part-time, or seasonal jobs need to know:

✔️ Covered from day one. No minimum hours, no waiting period.
✔️ Medical care starts immediately — wage benefits kick in after 7 days (or day one if you're out past 14).
✔️ Paid in cash or on a 1099? Doesn't matter. What counts is who controlled the work.
✔️ Minor employed off the books? The claim can double — and the employer pays it, not insurance.
✔️ No coverage from your employer doesn't mean no claim.
✔️ Two deadlines: notify your employer within 30 days, file within two years.

Terry Katz & Associates has helped 25,000+ injured workers across New York and Long Island recover compensation after being hurt on the job. If it turns into something long-term, Social Security Disability may be the next step — we handle both.

🌡️ Feeling dizzy, nauseous, or short of breath on the job this summer? That could be a workers' comp claim waiting to happen.

Extreme heat and wildfire smoke send New Yorkers to the ER every summer. If it happened while you were working, you may have more rights than you think.

New York workers' comp is no-fault; you don't need to prove your employer did anything wrong, just that the job caused or worsened your condition.

The catch: that evidence (the heat index, the smoke, the missing water breaks) disappears fast.

Here's 5 things to document after a heat or smoke exposure at work, plus the deadlines that could make or break your claim. 👷‍♂️👷‍♀️

Today honors Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s enduring legacy of justice, dignity, and respect for every worker.

His fight for civil rights included standing with Memphis sanitation workers who risked their jobs to demand safer conditions, fair pay, and basic human respect. These were the workers who marched with “I Am a Man” signs, calling on the nation to recognize their humanity as well as their labor.

The same values of safety, fairness, and security that animated that struggle are also reflected in today’s workers’ compensation system, which exists to protect injured workers and their families with medical care and financial support when work causes harm.

Every worker deserves protection. Every injury deserves proper care. Every claim deserves fair, knowledgeable representation.

At Terry Katz & Associates, we carry forward that commitment to justice by fighting to help injured workers obtain the benefits and medical treatment they’ve earned under New York law, so they can focus on healing and rebuilding their lives.
