New York City Ladder Fall Injury Lawyer

New York Ladder Fall and Broken Bones Attorney

As a construction worker, you know that any fall from a ladder can result in injuries to the back, spinal cord, head and other areas of the body. Often, these injuries can require extensive medical treatment, especially when ladder falls happen at large heights. It can be challenging for you and your family to pay for medical bills and other expenses while you are unable to return to the job.

At The Perecman Law Firm, our attorneys have worked with a wide range of construction accident victims, including those who have fallen from ladders and scaffolding in New York. Since our firm was founded in 1983, our lawyers have obtained millions of dollars in settlements and verdicts for our clients and continue to handle more construction accident cases each year than many lawyers handle in their entire careers.

Ladder Falls and Your Rights to Compensation

One of the most important, and often one of the most complex, parts of any case involving a construction accident is determining the responsible parties. Typically, the construction worker's employer may be held liable in a ladder fall. Our firm is also able to handle workers' compensation claims in a timely manner for our clients.

In addition, we will look to see whether other people may be liable after a ladder fall, such as a general contractor, property owner, product manufacturer or another party whose negligence contributed to the accident. We will look to see if these parties followed OSHA regulations with regards to the ladder and equipment in question.

Even a broken bone can make it difficult to work and live normally, while more severe injuries can require a lifetime of care. Work with a personal injury lawyer who has your best interests in mind.
