DSNY 911 Information
Did you know that if you were turned down by the WTC Victim Compensation Fund (VCF) because you waited too long to register, thanks to a change in the law, you may be able to do so now!
If you get certified by the WTC Health Program with a new illness, that will reopen the 2-year period to register a VCF claim and you can seek compensation for the old illnesses that are currently time-barred.
If you think that you might be eligible for a new illness certification, call the Health Program at 888-982-4748 to make an appointment. Once you are certified, you can get the compensation that you deserve for the new illness AND the other illnesses that were too late to claim.
And, of course , if you have been diagnosed with any of the 68 cancers linked to the toxic dust, including skin cancer, you will be able to claim it as well as every other older diagnosed illness. you have any questions about your legal rights, I suggest that you contact attorney Mike Barasch for a free consultation. His firm represents more people, and has recovered more money, than any other firm in the country. You can reach Mike at 1-800-562-9190
