Construction Accident Injury
Cases We Can Help With

We represent victims who suffer catastrophic injuries in complex construction accidents in New York. Our attorneys will identify every party that may be responsible for providing compensation to victims, whether through a third-party lawsuit, workers’ compensation claim, or Social Security Disability claim. 

Ladder Accidents

Falls from ladders are a common hazard on construction sites. Ladder accidents result from unsafe practices, defective ladders, lack of training, and other causes. Individuals working near a ladder can also suffer injuries from falling objects or people.

Trip and Falls

When equipment, power cords, supplies, and other debris accumulate on a job site, workers face the risk of tripping and falling. Trip-and-fall accidents can cause severe injuries, especially when a person falls to a lower level.

Saw Injuries

Power saws and even hand saws pose a significant safety risk on construction sites. Improper use of a saw can cause deep cuts and even amputation of fingers and limbs. Eye injuries are another risk when ungaurded blades eject material. Defective designs or inadequate safety equipment can make saws especially dangerous.

Falling Objects

People working on lower levels are at risk of suffering catastrophic injuries when tools, building supplies, or other objects fall from above. Contractors in charge of work sites should take measures to prevent objects from falling. Tragic accidents can result when they fail to do so. 

Scaffolding Accidents

The New York Scaffold Law protects workers who fall or are struck by falling objects. Construction company owners and contractors must provide safety equipment and take steps to ensure a safe working environment.   

Crane Accidents

Cranes are essential but dangerous to operate. A mishap can result in accidents that can be deadly and lead to permanently disabling injuries to both workers and pedestrians nearby

Electrocution

Electrical wiring and machinery are abundant on work sites. If an electrocution injury was due to someone else’s negligent actions, you may be able to file a lawsuit for compensation.
