$1,925,000.00 settlement secured for a construction worker who was injured after falling through improperly secured temporary flooring at a New York job site.
The Perecman Firm secured a $1,925,000.00 settlement for a construction worker who was injured after falling through improperly secured temporary flooring while working at a New York construction site.
The lawsuit alleged violations of New York Labor Law §240(1), which requires proper protection against elevation-related hazards. The case involved the failure to properly secure or cover a floor opening, creating a dangerous condition that caused the worker to fall to a lower level.
The case resolved for $1,925,000.00 following litigation led by Peter Rigelhaupt. The recovery provided compensation for the worker’s medical treatment and the long-term impact of his injuries.
