A workplace injury is devastating, but it does not have to be financially draining. Catherine M. Stanton, senior partner at Pasternack Tilker Ziegler Walsh Stanton & Romano LLP, helps injured employees secure workers’ compensation. She represents clients across the state of New York, including those in New York City, Long Island, Westchester, Newburgh, Queens, Brooklyn, the Bronx, Manhattan and Staten Island, as well as those in Suffolk and Nassau counties.

Leading the way in the legal community, Ms. Stanton is on the Board of Directors of the New York State Trial Lawyers Association and the Vice President of the Brehon Law Society of Nassau County.

A workers’ compensation claim presents an opportunity to recover funds needed for medical treatment and even missed wages. Ms. Stanton not only handles every aspect of claims, such as ensuring an accurate application or fighting denials, but she also conducts seminars for peers and workers.
