9/11 Lawyers for the Chinatown Community

PITTA & BAIONE LLP 必达.白安 律师事务所

Individuals who were present south of Houston Street in Lower Manhattan between September 11, 2001 and July 31, 2002 may be eligible for free healthcare and compensation. Families of deceased individuals may be entitled to compensation as well. The federal government recently provided fully funded compensation and extended the deadline through 2090, but other critical deadlines may apply. However, all who were present in Lower Manhattan between 9/11/01 and 7/31/02 should act fast to determine whether they may be eligible for compensation. Awards will continue to be paid on a first-come first-serve basis.

在2001年9月11日至2002年7月31日期间，在曼哈顿下城休斯顿街以南出现的民众有可能符合资格申请免费医疗和经济赔偿。已故民众的家属也有可能获得赔偿。联邦政府为9/11赔偿基金会(VCF)提供全额资助，并将截止日期延长到2090年。儘管如此，VCF在将来也可能设有其他相关的期限。所有在2001年9月11日至2002年7月31日期间出现在曼哈顿下城的社区民众都应该迅速採取行动，以确认自己是否有资格获得赔偿。赔偿金将继续以先到先得的方式发放。
