$2,000,000.00 settlement secured for a construction worker who was injured after falling from a ladder while retrieving equipment from a scaffold at a New York job site.
The Perecman Firm secured a $2,000,000.00 settlement for a construction worker who was injured after falling from a ladder while attempting to retrieve equipment from a scaffold 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 hazards. The case involved the failure to provide a stable and secure means of access between the ladder and scaffold, resulting in the worker’s fall.
The case resolved for $2,000,000.00 following litigation led by Adam Hurwitz. The recovery provided compensation for the worker’s medical treatment and the long-term impact of his injuries.
