$925,000 settlement obtained for a concrete laborer who injured his shoulder while working on a construction project in Manhattan.
The Perecman Firm secured a $925,000 settlement for a construction worker who was injured when a heavy piece of material fell from above and struck him while he was performing work at a New York construction site.
The lawsuit alleged violations of New York Labor Law §240(1), which requires proper protection against falling objects at elevation. The case involved the failure to properly secure materials and safeguard workers performing tasks below active construction work.
The case resolved for $925,000 following litigation led by Erica Colon. The recovery provided compensation for the worker’s medical treatment and the lasting impact of his injuries.
