Queens |NYC| Brooklyn |Bronx Workers’ Compensation Attorneys
Let’s suppose that you hurt your neck in a work-related accident a couple years ago, or five years ago, and you successfully filed a workers’ compensation claim. You recovered from your injury and went back to work. Now you suffer another injury at work, also to your neck. Will your employer be able to successfully deny your claim, arguing that the injury was a pre-existing condition and that the injury was not caused by your employment?
