The penalty assistance program

From a confusing notice to an organized response.

For bodegas, restaurants, contractors, salons, cleaning companies, and the people keeping New York’s small businesses running.

Bring the letter. We’ll help sort the details.

Keep every page of your notice, insurance records, and any related correspondence together.

01

Understand the notice

We identify the notice type, review the stated deadlines, and explain which business and insurance documents you’ll need.

02

Build the administrative response

We help organize evidence, identify coverage gaps or missing records, coordinate corrections with your insurer when appropriate, and assist with review or reduction-request paperwork.

03

Follow through. Stay prepared.

We track paperwork and deadlines, help you understand the Board’s response, and provide an insurance-compliance checklist to help prevent future problems.

Assistance, not a guarantee. Valid penalties are not simply waived; the Workers’ Compensation Board may consider reduction requests. CompClear provides administrative paperwork assistance, not legal representation. Matters requiring legal representation should be handled by a licensed legal professional.

Service scope & fees

Know what’s included before you commit.

Your notice determines the work needed. We explain the fee, its calculation, and payment terms during consultation, then document them in a written agreement.
