Attorney Peter M. Cordovano concentrates his legal practice in the areas of New York State Workers' Compensation and Social Security Disability law. With a breadth of experience across all relevant disability matters, Mr. Cordovano seeks to maximize the financial recovery for his clients by looking not only to Workers' Compensation and SSD but also to NYS retirement and personal injury litigation where applicable.
The practice at the law office of Peter M. Cordovano, P.C. in Highland spans many areas designed to help the people of the mid-Hudson Valley with their most immediate legal needs. We represent people whose claims for disability benefits have been denied, or who have been injured in a car accident or workplace accident.
If you have been injured because of someone's negligent misconduct, you may be entitled to compensation from the responsible party to meet your expenses and help cover your financial and emotional losses. However, such payment is not automatic, and the burden is on you to prove the other party's liability.
In 2013, more than 300,000 motor vehicle crashes occurred in New York State, resulting in over 169,000 injuries and more than 1,000 deaths. Persons who have been injured in a crash or who lost a loved one are likely facing considerable financial expenses and emotional pain and suffering. New York State offers a number of different ways in which injury victims or their families may recover compensation for their injuries.
According to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), 4,585 workers were killed on the job in 2013, which equates on average to 88 fatalities a week or over a dozen worker deaths every day. In most years, this number is even higher. As for nonfatal injuries and illnesses in the workplace, this number exceeds three million.

A few months ago I needed info on a small claim I'd started against a local dentist. One of the attorneys I called was Peter M. Cordovano. He immediately took my call and answered all my questions. He was well-spoken and easy to understand. His fees were quite reasonable. I will always be grateful for his generous help.
