The Fogel Law Firm – Albuquerque, NM

Dedicated Representation for Injured Workers

In the complex industrial and commercial landscape of Albuquerque, workplace accidents are an unfortunate reality. The Fogel Law Firm, located in the Highland business district on Truman Street NE, stands as a specialized advocate for employees who have been hurt on the job. Led by Patrick Fogel, a veteran attorney with decades of experience, the firm focuses squarely on Workers’ Compensation law. Unlike general practice firms that dabble in various fields, Patrick Fogel’s deep understanding of the New Mexico Workers’ Compensation Administration (NMWCA) allows him to navigate the bureaucratic hurdles that often delay or deny benefits to deserving workers.

Navigating Workers’ Compensation Claims

The firm provides essential legal support for individuals facing the physical and financial aftermath of a work injury. Their expertise covers every stage of the claim process:

• Claim Filing and Appeals: Assisting workers in filing initial claims and aggressively appealing denials from insurance adjusters.
• Medical Treatment Disputes: Fighting to ensure that injured employees receive proper medical care, including surgeries and rehabilitation, rather than the bare minimum offered by insurers.
• Permanent Partial Disability (PPD): Advocating for fair disability ratings and lump-sum settlements when an injury results in lasting impairment.
• Death Benefits: Representing the families of workers who have tragically lost their lives in industrial accidents.

A History of Local Advocacy

Patrick Fogel has been a fixture in the New Mexico legal community since 1983. His practice is built on personal attention and a commitment to the working class of Albuquerque. Whether the injury occurred on a construction site, in a hospital, or during a delivery route, the firm understands that lost wages and medical bills can quickly devastate a family’s stability.
