Mission

The IWBA is dedicated to the representation of and advocacy on behalf of injured workers and provides members the opportunity to connect with attorneys that share common interests and goals.

The Injured Workers' Bar Association, established January 7, 1997, is comprised of attorneys from throughout New York State who concentrate their practice in representation of injured workers. Many of our members practice exclusively in the area of Workers' Compensation Law. Our members provide legal representation for tens of thousands of injured workers every year.

To become a member of the IWBA, an attorney must show that 80% or more of their Workers' Compensation practice consists of representing injured workers and not insurance carriers or employers. Most members also help injured workers in personal injury cases and Social Security Disability cases.
