$5,600,000.00 settlement secured for a construction worker who was injured when a scaffold component fell and struck him while he was performing work at a New York job site.
The Perecman Firm secured a $5,600,000.00 settlement for a construction worker who sustained serious injuries when a portion of a scaffold fell and struck him while he was performing work at a New York construction site.
The lawsuit alleged violations of New York Labor Law §240(1), which requires proper protection against falling objects. The case involved the failure to properly secure scaffold components during dismantling operations, creating a dangerous condition for workers in the area.
The case resolved for $5,600,000.00 following litigation led by Zach Perecman. The recovery provided compensation for the worker’s medical treatment and the long-term impact of his injuries.
