Trade Workers Injured on the Job in New York, Suffolk & Nassau

Helping those in the trades get the fullest compensation for their workplace injuries

The American labor movement can trace some of its earliest roots back to New York, where, in 1833, journeymen carpenters staged a strike for a wage increase. Supported by other tradespeople, their demands were finally met. Today, union and non-union carpenters, welders, iron workers, electricians, plumbers, roofers, HVAC specialists and machinists as well as window washers, restaurant workers and others can take continued pride in the contributions they have made to the growth of New York City and New York State.

When you as a trades person suffer injury on the job, you may have special concerns. At the Suffolk law firm of Birzon, Strang, and Associates, we understand your concern that your injury may prevent you from continuing in your line of work. That is why we take great pride in our job, making sure that you get the compensation you deserve and need to support yourself and your family.

Testimonials

  • "“I was recently in a very bad motorcycle accident, I was recommended to Barrie from a close friends mother and am very glad I was. Since the day of my call to Barrie she was committed to helping me in every aspect of the process, and any question that me or my entire family had. She got me the first part of my settlement very fast, and when the insurance companies tried to fight the second part she was relentless on getting me what I was needed. Furthermore she was successful on me getting the entire settlement and kept me up to date the entire time the process went on. She is self-less, attentive, easy to communicate with, easy to get in contact with, and was respectfully aggressive to get what I the client needed. I will highly recommend her to anyone that needs a lawyer. I am very grateful for her.”"  -Jesse

Her communication is excellent as she kept me informed through the entire process, and returns phone calls almost immediately. She will leave no stone unturned, and is truly dedicated to her clients. I can’t thank her enough for relieving the stress during a very difficult time for me and my family. Look no further, Barrie is brilliant and a winner!”"  -Kathleen

  • "“I got into a car accidret in January and was referred to Barrie by a friend. Her communication was excellent throughout the entire process no matter the time or how silly my questions were. She was stern and direct with the adjusters which resuktes in very few mistakes and an incredibly quick turn around on my settlement. I have nothing but good thigs to say.
