About McDonald Worley

McDonald Worley's New York office is located on the Seventh Floor of 305 Broadway in Lower Manhattan, close to federal and state courts and well-positioned to serve clients throughout the five boroughs and the surrounding area. The firm's practice covers Social Security disability law, personal injury, and medical law, which means it is particularly well suited for clients whose disability stems from an accident, medical negligence, or a serious physical condition that has prevented them from working. The firm currently holds a 1-star Yelp rating based on 4 reviews, and it can be helpful for those interested to call (718) 795-2357 to speak directly with staff and ask questions about how the firm handles disability and injury cases. The overlap between personal injury and Social Security disability is a meaningful one since many clients who suffer serious injuries eventually face long-term work limitations that make them eligible for federal disability benefits.
