A claim should be promptly filed under New York’s Workers Compensation Law.
In addition, the accident should be reviewed by an attorney to determine all parties that may be responsible for payment to the injured party.

However, when a third party is also responsible, a separate lawsuit for additional compensation can be filed in the local court system.
