$2,050,000 settlement secured for a construction worker who was injured after stepping from an elevated platform onto an uneven surface without a safe means of access at a New York job site.
The Perecman Firm secured a $2,050,000 settlement for a construction worker who was injured after stepping from an elevated platform onto an uneven surface while performing work at a New York construction site.
The lawsuit alleged violations of New York Labor Law §241(6), including the failure to provide a safe means of access between working levels. The case involved hazardous site conditions, including an improperly configured platform and the absence of stairs, ramps, or other safe access points for workers required to move between elevations.
The case resolved for $2.05 million following litigation led by Adam Hurwitz. The recovery provided compensation for the worker’s medical treatment and the lasting impact of his injuries.
