New York City Scaffolding Accident Lawyer

New York Scaffolding Injury Attorney

Trust an Experienced Background in Construction Law

Construction workers often have to use scaffolding in order to perform their work. When a worker falls from scaffolding, or when scaffolding collapses, it can cause them life-altering injuries, such as head injuries, spinal cord injuries, and broken bones. New York has a special law designed to protect workers who are injured while on scaffolds to help them pay for medical bills, lost earnings, pain and suffering and other expenses. That law, Labor Law Section 240, requires owners of buildings and general contractors to provide proper safety protection for all on site workers.

Few New York law firms have the experience handling scaffold accidents that we have at The Perecman Firm. Our Bronx scaffolding accident lawyers have successfully resolved more baker scaffold, mobile scaffold, suspension scaffold, scissor lift and pipe scaffold cases in the past few years than most firms handle in their existence. If you or someone you know has had a scaffold accident, chances are we have been successful, more than once, in a similar case. Find out why David Perecman has been chosen, year after year, to lecture to and teach other lawyers about construction accidents law in and around New York City and State.
