Neck & Shoulder Injury Representation for New Hampshire Workers
Clear guidance, strong advocacy, and over 40 years of experience

Introduction
Helping NH Workers Recover From Painful Neck & Shoulder Injuries
Neck and shoulder injuries are some of the most common—and most disruptive—workplace injuries in New Hampshire. These injuries can limit mobility, make routine tasks difficult, and prevent workers from performing their job duties safely.
At Vanacore Law Office, we help workers across the state secure the medical treatment, wage benefits, and long-term support they need after suffering neck or shoulder injuries. Whether caused by lifting, repetitive motion, patient handling, machinery, or falls, these injuries deserve careful documentation and strong advocacy.
With over 40 years of workers’ compensation experience, Attorney John G. Vanacore provides the steady guidance and honest communication injured workers rely on during recovery.
