Our Construction Site Accident Practice

We provide comprehensive representation to people who have suffered injury in a construction site accident, including cases involving:

• Scaffolding injuries—Under New York's Labor Law 240, workers who are injured as a result of a dangerous, defective or poorly constructed scaffold may recover for their losses, even if they may have been partially responsible. We are intimately familiar with the provisions of Section 240 and will help you recover the compensation you deserve if you have been injured in a fall from a scaffold or ladder.
• Falling objects—We protect the rights of people who have been injured by falling objects at a construction site, including building materials, tools, ladders and other items.
• Injuries caused by unsafe conditions—The general contractor and site manager have a legal obligation to keep a construction site safe. We handle third party claims for negligence when this duty is not met.
• Injuries caused by other negligence—We handle construction site injuries resulting from any type of negligence, including a failure to properly train employees or a failure to hire qualified workers.
