Zadroga Act & 9/11 Victim Compensation Fund Claims
We led the charge for over 9,000 sick 9/11 rescue and recovery workers.
Our law firm fought to obtain necessary compensation for those police officers, firefighters, construction workers, and office cleaners who worked so hard to rescue the wounded, recover those lost, and get New York, and our country, back on its feet. Our litigation efforts resulted in the recovery of nearly $1 billion for those workers who were diagnosed with various types of 9/11-related cancers, severe and debilitating respiratory illnesses, and other significant 9/11 injuries due to their exposure to the toxins at Ground Zero.

I am now a process server. I was a world trade center first responder working as an Emergency Medical Tecnician, for FDNY. I was represented by the great firm.

Very pleasant and professional
Our Role Continues in Helping 9/11 Victims
Our efforts in representing the seriously ill 9/11 victims as a result of their toxic exposure at Ground Zero continue. Unlike the initial Victim Compensation Fund, which operated until 2004, this iteration of the Fund, as reauthorized by the Zadroga Act, permits recovery by those individuals who not only participated in rescue and recovery operations, but also for anyone who lived, worked, or attended school in the New York City Exposure Zone (defined as any area south of Canal Street) between September 11, 2001 and May 30, 2002.
If you or a loved one were diagnosed with a cancer or a significant respiratory illness which you believe might be related to toxic exposure in Lower Manhattan during this time period -- or if a relative died under these circumstances – contact our White Plains 9/11 Victims (VCF) lawyers immediately for a free consultation.
