Neffs is a small village in North Whitehall Township in Lehigh County, Pennsylvania, United States. Neffs is located at the junction of Pennsylvania Routes 873 and 329, about one mile north of Schnecksville. Historically, the town was called Unionville, after the Union Church that was established there in 1797. The first store was built in 1815. The current town name is a reference to Abraham Neff, the first postmaster at the Neffs post office. Neff laid out the village while running a coach business and a local hotel. The area was then called Neffsville, which was later shortened to Neffs. The current day Neffs post office was built in 1967. At that time the first non-agricultural manufacturing plant was built in Neffs by Ted Ambrosino, who established Ambro Fashions. The town was so concerned about the influx of additional mail and post office activity, that it applied for and won, a federal grant to build an upgraded modern post office facility.

What is workers compensation law?
Workers Compensation establishes the liability of an employer for injuries or sicknesses which arise out of and in the course of employment. The liability is created without regard to the fault or negligence of the employer. Benefits generally include hospital and other medical payments and compensation for loss of income; if the injury is covered by the statute, compensation under the statute will be the employees only remedy against her or her employer. The workers compensation systems in place in each state are exclusive, no-fault remedies for most workplace injuries, and workers compensation attorneys guide injured workers through the process, to ensure that they receive appropriate income replacement payments and other monetary awards.
