Markhoff & Mittman, P.C. is a law firm that concentrates on workers’ compensation and personal injury matters. Established in 1979, the firm represents individuals who have sustained injuries arising out of and in the course of employment, as defined under New York workers’ compensation law. Its attorneys handle matters involving claim filing, hearings before the Workers’ Compensation Board, and related appeals.
Workers’ compensation claims are governed by a no-fault system that provides medical coverage and wage replacement benefits to eligible employees. The process requires timely reporting of injuries, submission of medical documentation, and compliance with administrative deadlines. Disputes may arise over the extent of disability, causal relationship to employment, or duration of benefits, often requiring formal hearings.
The firm’s workers’ compensation practice addresses injuries that occur across a range of industries, including construction, healthcare, transportation, and service occupations. Claims may involve repetitive stress injuries, exposure-related illnesses, or acute workplace accidents. Each case is reviewed based on employment records, medical evaluations, and applicable statutes.
Markhoff & Mittman, P.C. also handles cases in which workers’ compensation claims intersect with third-party personal injury actions. In certain circumstances, injured employees may pursue separate civil claims against parties other than the employer when negligence is alleged. Coordination between these matters is subject to statutory liens and settlement considerations.
The firm maintains offices serving workers' comp clients in Brooklyn, New York, and represents claimants before administrative agencies throughout the state. Attorneys and staff manage filings, correspondence, and appearances related to workers’ compensation proceedings. Case management includes monitoring medical treatment authorizations and benefit payments as required by law.
In addition to representation before the Workers’ Compensation Board, the firm provides information regarding claim procedures and benefit categories. These include temporary disability, permanent partial disability, and permanent total disability classifications. Understanding these categories is central to determining the scope and duration of benefits available to injured workers.
Markhoff & Mittman, P.C. employs a contingency-based fee structure for workers’ compensation matters, consistent with state regulations governing attorney compensation in such cases. Fees are subject to approval by the Workers’ Compensation Board and are typically based on awarded benefits. This structure is outlined in statutory provisions applicable to workers’ compensation representation.
The firm’s attorneys are admitted to practice in New York and are experienced in administrative litigation related to workplace injury claims. Professional responsibilities include adherence to ethical rules and compliance with procedural requirements established by state authorities. Ongoing legal education and monitoring of regulatory changes are part of the firm’s operational practices.
