The Law Offices of Oliver C. Minott

The Law Offices of Oliver C. Minott operates from Suite 105 at 1200 Waters Place in the Bronx, a professional office location that serves clients throughout New York City and the surrounding region. The firm's practice is concentrated in Social Security law, workers compensation, and disability law, three areas that frequently intersect for clients whose ability to work has been limited or eliminated by illness or injury. For Bronx residents navigating the Social Security disability system, having a local attorney who understands both federal benefit programs and New York's workers compensation framework can make a meaningful difference. The SSA's disability determination process is lengthy and involves specific medical and vocational criteria that are not always easy for claimants to address on their own. The firm's focus on this area means clients are working with attorneys who understand the standards the SSA uses and how to present a claim effectively at each stage.

The firm assists clients from the earliest stages of a disability claim through the full appeals process, including representation at hearings before administrative law judges. For workers compensation matters, the firm helps clients file claims, respond to employer or insurer challenges, and pursue the benefits available under New York law for both temporary and permanent disabilities. Because the firm handles both Social Security and workers compensation cases, it is positioned to advise clients on how benefits from one program may interact with those from another, which is a nuance that can affect how much a claimant ultimately receives.

Individuals can reach the firm by calling (866) 683-4200 to arrange an initial consultation. During that meeting, the attorney will review the client's work history, medical condition, and any prior contact with the Social Security Administration or a workers compensation insurer. From there, the firm will identify what stage the claim is at, whether any deadlines are approaching, and what documentation will be most important to gather. Clients are typically kept informed as the case progresses through each stage of the administrative process.

The firm serves clients throughout the Bronx, Manhattan, and New York City, as well as individuals in nearby areas of New York State who need Social Security or workers compensation representation.
