Tiernan & Krug Attorneys

Tiernan & Krug Attorneys is located at 110 Pearl Street in the heart of downtown Buffalo, a central location that makes the firm accessible to workers from across the city and Erie County. With a practice grounded in workers compensation law, the firm directs its energy toward one of the most consequential legal needs working people face: getting proper medical care and wage replacement after a job-related injury. New York's workers compensation process involves state board filings, hearings, and back-and-forth with insurance carriers that can stretch on for months. Tiernan & Krug Attorneys is set up to handle that process on behalf of clients, aiming to reduce the burden on injured workers who are already dealing with physical recovery. The firm's downtown Buffalo location puts it close to the administrative infrastructure where many of these cases are decided.

Tiernan & Krug Attorneys assists clients with the full range of workers compensation matters, from submitting initial claims and securing medical benefit approvals to fighting back when insurers dispute the severity of an injury or terminate benefits early. The firm also represents clients in hearings before the New York Workers Compensation Board when a dispute cannot be resolved without formal proceedings, and handles cases involving permanent disability ratings that affect long-term financial recovery.

Reaching out to Tiernan & Krug Attorneys typically starts with a conversation about what happened, how your employer responded, and what the insurance carrier has done so far. The firm then assesses the strength of your claim and outlines the steps ahead, which may include gathering medical records, communicating with your employer's insurer, and filing necessary paperwork with the Workers Compensation Board. Throughout the process, the firm works to keep you informed so you are never left wondering about the status of your case.
