$1,650,000 settlement obtained for an electrician's apprentice who injured his back after falling from an A-frame ladder on a worksite.
The Perecman Firm secured a $1,650,000 settlement for an electrician’s apprentice who was injured after falling from an A-frame ladder while performing work at a New York construction site.
The lawsuit alleged violations of New York Labor Law §240(1), which requires proper safety protections for workers exposed to elevation-related risks. The case focused on the failure to provide adequate safety devices to prevent a fall while performing elevated work.
The case resolved for $1.65 million following litigation led by Zach Perecman. The recovery provided substantial compensation for the worker’s medical treatment and the long-term impact of his injuries.
