Markhoff & Mittman, P.C. announced a renewed firmwide focus on work injury cases, reflecting ongoing developments in New York workers’ compensation law and an increase in claims arising from construction, transportation, and service-sector employment. The announcement was made this month as the firm continues its legal practice representing individuals pursuing benefits and claims related to workplace injuries, including matters involving employer insurance carriers and administrative proceedings.
“Yonkers work injury cases involve a defined statutory framework that can be difficult for injured workers to navigate without legal guidance,” said Brian Mittman, Esq., a partner at Markhoff & Mittman, P.C. “The firm’s work in this area is centered on interpreting applicable regulations and presenting claims in accordance with established procedures.”
Work injury law in New York is primarily governed by the state’s workers’ compensation system, which provides medical coverage and wage replacement benefits to employees injured in the course of employment. Claims are administered through a structured process that includes medical documentation, employer reporting, and review by the Workers’ Compensation Board. Disputes may arise regarding the extent of injury, eligibility for benefits, or the duration of authorized treatment.
Markhoff & Mittman, P.C. was established in 1977 and has maintained a legal practice focused on personal injury and workers’ compensation matters for several decades. The firm represents clients in administrative hearings and related proceedings involving on-the-job injuries, occupational illnesses, and claims connected to unsafe working conditions. Its attorneys handle matters that may also intersect with third-party liability claims when injuries involve parties other than an employer.
In work injury cases, legal representation often involves coordinating with medical providers, reviewing employment records, and responding to insurer requests for independent medical examinations. Attorneys must also monitor statutory deadlines and procedural requirements that can affect benefit eligibility. These elements are governed by state law and administrative rules, which are periodically updated through legislative and regulatory action.
The firm’s recent emphasis on work injury representation follows broader discussions within the legal community about workplace safety and claim adjudication. Industries such as construction and transportation continue to account for a significant share of reported injuries statewide, according to publicly available labor statistics. Legal practitioners have noted that claim complexity can increase when injuries result in extended disability or when employment status is disputed.
Markhoff & Mittman, P.C. operates offices serving clients in the New York metropolitan region, including individuals who work in Westchester County and surrounding areas. The firm’s attorneys are licensed to practice in New York and regularly appear before administrative bodies and courts handling workers’ compensation and related personal injury matters. Case work is conducted in accordance with state ethical rules and procedural standards.
As part of its ongoing legal practice, the firm maintains informational resources addressing common issues in work injury cases, such as benefit calculations, hearing procedures, and appeal rights. These materials are intended to outline general legal processes rather than predict outcomes in individual claims. Information about the firm and its practice areas is available on Markhoff & Mittman, P.C.'s website.
The firm has indicated that its work injury practice will continue to adapt to regulatory changes and administrative guidance issued by state authorities. Attorneys monitor updates affecting compensation rates, medical treatment guidelines, and procedural rules that govern claim filings. Additional firm information can be found by visit website resources maintained by the practice.
