A father of two who developed throat cancer after spending 16 hours a day for six months removing toxic debris from buildings next to Ground Zero claims that he received a check for $0 to compensate him for his work-related injuries.

Galvis filed a claim against Merrill Lynch, the company for which he removed the debris, seeking compensation for his medical treatments after a friend connected him with the law firm Worby, Groner, Edelman & Napoli Bern, which was helping many other 9/11 workers get compensation for their injuries.

The firm promised him 60 per cent of whatever he won. He even mentioned the words 'millions of dollars'"

Just four months after receiving a $10,000 offer, Galvis found out he had throat cancer but, according to the firm, it was too late for him to add that malady to his claim.

He realized the check was for a grand total of $0.00.

 His award had been $10,005, but his lawyers at the firm Worby, Groner, Edelman & Napoli Bern lopped off $2,579 for unitemized legal expenses.

Then they took a 33.3 percent fee of $2,124.

They also subtracted $352, a fee to the lawyer who referred him.

The remaining $4,950 was withheld for unspecified "liens."

Mr Galvis was expecting a check to pay for his helping victims of 911 and he thought the check for $0.00 was a joke."
