New York Broken Bones and Head Injury Lawyer
If you are a construction worker, you know that your job requires you to work on ladders, scaffolds, roofs and on other structures that, because they are high above the ground, expose you to falling or being struck by falling objects. When workers fall from heights, or when objects fall from heights and land on workers, the result can be broken bones, devastating head injuries and other serious injuries. These injuries often make it impossible to return to work and can involve expensive medical care. Getting compensation for lost wages and doctor bills is critical for injured workers and their families.
Few firms can match the experience that Attorney David Perecman and the Perecman Law Firm bring to representing injured workers in construction accidents. For over 30 years, our construction accident lawyers have worked hard to get our clients the maximum compensation possible for medical expenses, lost wages and other expenses related to your accident. With a personal injury lawyer on your side, you can feel confident that your needs are being met.
Labor and Personal Injury Law in New York Construction Accidents
After any construction accident, it is important for victims to know their rights and what compensation they may be entitled to under the law. Labor Law Section 240 covers scaffolding accidents, falls from heights, excavation and demolition work. This law gives workers who have been injured in falls from heights the chance to file suit against the owner and general contractor. The Perecman Law Firm can explain the law, your rights and what options you have for pursuing the benefits that you deserve.
When contractors, property owners or their agents are negligent and that negligence leads to serious injuries, our lawyers will take every step within the law to hold these negligent parties accountable. When workers' compensation benefits are your sole remedy, we can help you file for those benefits. In every workplace accident, we will find every liable party and seek appropriate compensation from them.
