These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of workinjuryanswers.com (the “Site”), operated by Work Injury Answers (“we,” “us,” or “our”). By loading any page of the Site, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If any part of them is unacceptable to you, your only remedy is to stop using the Site.
1. Disclaimer of Professional Advice & Legal Liability
Work Injury Answers exists to give quick, general-interest answers about how New York’s workers’ compensation system typically works. The Site is informational and educational only. Nothing published here is legal, financial, medical, or other professional advice, and nothing on the Site should be treated as a substitute for advice from a licensed attorney, physician, or other qualified professional who is familiar with the specific facts of your case.
Work Injury Answers is not a law firm, does not employ or supervise attorneys for the purpose of representing visitors, and does not review or evaluate individual claims. Using the Site, emailing us, or submitting a contact form does not create an attorney-client relationship, a confidential or privileged relationship, or any professional-client relationship of any kind between you and Work Injury Answers.
The Site and all of its content are provided strictly on an “as-is” and “as-available” basis, without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory — including, without limitation, implied warranties of accuracy, completeness, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. Workers’ compensation law, deadlines, and procedures change, vary by jurisdiction, and depend heavily on the specific facts of each claim; general content that fits one reader’s situation may not fit yours.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Work Injury Answers, its owners, contributors, and affiliates disclaim all liability for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages arising from your access to, use of, or inability to use the Site, or from any decision, action, or inaction taken in reliance on Site content. You use the Site entirely at your own risk. If you have a specific legal question or a claim that needs to be filed, protected, or appealed, consult a licensed New York workers’ compensation attorney directly — do not rely on this Site for that purpose.
2. Intellectual Property Rights
All articles, text, graphics, layouts, logos, and other original content on the Site are owned by Work Injury Answers or licensed to it, and are protected by U.S. copyright, trademark, and other intellectual-property laws. Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive license to view and print pages from the Site for your own personal, non-commercial reference.
You may not:
- Republish or redistribute Site content, in whole or in substantial part, on another website, publication, or platform without our prior written permission.
- Resell or commercially exploit any content, design element, or data obtained from the Site.
- Deploy scrapers, bots, spiders, or automated crawlers — including tools used to collect text for training artificial-intelligence or machine-learning models — to copy, mine, or reproduce Site content without our prior written permission.
- Remove or alter copyright notices, trademarks, or other proprietary markings appearing on the Site.
Any use beyond the limited license above requires our advance written consent. Requests can be sent to the email address in Section 9.
3. Third-Party Links & Referrals
The Site may link to government agencies, news sources, or third-party professionals, and may occasionally connect a visitor who requests it with an independent attorney or service provider. We do not control, endorse, or vouch for any third-party site or professional, and inclusion of a link or referral is not a guarantee of quality, outcome, or fitness for your needs. Any engagement, fee arrangement, or dispute that arises after you contact a third party is a matter strictly between you and that third party, and Work Injury Answers bears no responsibility for it.
4. Prohibited Uses
When using the Site, you agree not to:
- Violate any law or use the Site for an unlawful purpose.
- Interfere with the Site’s operation, including by introducing malware, attempting unauthorized access, or overloading our servers.
- Misrepresent your identity or impersonate any person or entity when contacting us.
- Harvest data about other visitors or use the Site to send unsolicited communications.
- Infringe intellectual-property rights belonging to Work Injury Answers or any third party.
5. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Work Injury Answers and its owners, employees, and affiliates from any claim, liability, damage, loss, or expense — including reasonable attorneys’ fees — arising out of your use of the Site, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any right of a third party.
6. Severability
If any provision of these Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.
7. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms at any time by posting a revised version with a new “Last Updated” date. Continuing to use the Site after a revision is posted means you accept the changes. We encourage you to check this page periodically.
