Injury Attorney
Construction
workers have little control
over their job safety and
equipment. In fact, they
are subjected every day
to dangerous work conditions
that result in serious
injuries and death. This
is why it is important
to know that there are
knowledgeable New York
construction accidents
lawyers available who have
a plethora of experience
when it comes to these
related hazards. A scaffold
lawyer with experience
is important to have in
cases such as these.

Our
attorneys know that these
hazards can include falls
from scaffolds and other
elevations, even when workers
are wearing safety harnesses
and lanyards, being struck
by moving objects or falling
machinery, electrocution,
exposure to hazardous chemicals,
and injuries caused by
defective or unsafe equipment.
If you are involved in
a injury whether it involves
a falling object, a ladder,
scaffold, or a workman
falls, you should consult
a law firm immediately
to help you determine if
you have a viable claim.
A attorney will be able
to provide you with the
proper guidance, counseling
and advice you will need
to move forward with your
negligence claim. Work
site accidents have a way
of causing devastation
to working class families.
Whether it involves a fall,
a collapsing scaffold,
falling materials, falling
debris, or a ladder that
results in injury, we can
help.
Other ways our construction lawyers can help:
Recognizing
the dangerous nature of
this work and the limited
power given workers at
the worksite, at the urging
of unions and law firms,
legislators enacted the
Labor Law providing workers
with strong protection
against workplace accidents.
The workers and the attorney
who sues on their behalf
appreciate the protection
it offers. Experienced
defense lawyers, Contractors
and insurance carriers,
on the other hand, oppose
it because when the facts
satisfy the law, it is
virtually certain they
will have to pay significant
settlements. Defense attorneys
and insurance companies
are therefore constantly
lobbying state and federal
lawmakers to severely limit
or completely eliminate
these protections. Even
though the law favors workers,
it is very important to
select a injury lawyer
who has extensive experience
and a proven track record
litigating injury cases
against skilled defense
attorneys and powerful
insurance companies. A
scaffold lawyer, or ladder
attorney, is familiar with
the ever changing case
law in this personal injury
law area. Its important
to have a law firm who
is prepared to go the distance
for you.

As
a New York Construction
Accident Attorney, we
recently recovered $4.5 million
during trial for a client who
was seriously injured in an
accident. We understand what
it takes to successfully achieve
a multi-million dollar award
for you. While one clients
success is no guarantee of
a win in your case, we work
hard for our clients. We handle
accidents resulting from falls
from work areas, scaffolds
and ladders, injuries sustained
due to unsafe work conditions,
and injuries from falling objects
being hoisted. Many site owners
and their general contractors
cut corners and fail to provide
workers with proper safety
equipment or safe work conditions.
While the State Labor Law requires
such protection, it is frequently
ignored. Wrongdoers are motivated
to make more money at the expense
of worker safety. As experienced
lawyers, we know that hard
work, and diligence is the
roadmap to success. While no
lawsuit is easy, these cases
are particularly hard fought,
especially since they involve
significant injuries. If
you are looking for a law firm
to represent you, it is important
to know that we represent workers
