Seven Injured in Manhattan Construction Accident

March 15, 2013 By Michael Hecht

A recent construction accident in Manhattan injured seven people. The accident occurred when a crane that reached 170 feet into the air snapped in half and crashed into a 25-story residential building. It is unknown what caused the crane to snap. While none of the injuries were considered life threatening, there were three injuries that were considered serious. Emergency responders rushed to the scene and provided medical help to those who needed it, and transported those in need to the hospital. Some of those injured most likely contacted a Manhattan injury lawyer.

What Would You Do in the Same Situation?

If you were involved in an accident like this, would you know what to do? Do you know how you would pay all of your medical bills? If you are a victim of personal injury, then you should contact a Manhattan injury lawyer to discuss your case. There are injury lawyers in Manhattan that are well educated on personal injury law and can tell you whether or not you have a case. Your attorney should give you a free consultation, so you have nothing to lose by simply scheduling a meeting.

How a Lawyer Can Help You

If it is determined that you have a promising case, then your Manhattan injury attorney will work with you every step of the way. He or she will fight for you to make sure you get the maximum verdict or settlement amount possible under the law. While nothing can undo the personal injury you or a loved one sustained, these settlements can help give you the closure you need. Not only can your settlement help you pay off your medical bills and make up for time missed from work, it can also give you peace of mind to know that justice was served.

If you have been the victim of personal injury, whether it is through a car accident, work accident, a fall, or anything involving the negligence of another person, then you should contact an injury lawyer to see if your case is worth pursuing.
