$2,225,000 settlement secured for a construction worker who suffered a serious eye injury after being struck by a dislodged nail while performing framing work without adequate eye protection.
The Perecman Firm secured a $2,225,000 settlement for a construction worker who suffered a serious eye injury after being struck by a dislodged nail while performing framing work at a New York construction site.
The lawsuit alleged violations of New York Labor Law §241(6), including the failure to provide adequate and properly functioning eye protection to guard against foreseeable hazards during construction work. The case involved unsafe working conditions and inadequate safety equipment while performing overhead and framing-related tasks.
The case resolved for $2.225 million following litigation led by Mariusz Sniarowski. The recovery provided substantial compensation for the worker’s medical treatment and the long-term impact of his injuries.
