New York Construction Accident Attorneys

Construction workers are injured on dangerous work sites in a number of ways:

  • Scaffolding accidents / ladder accidents
  • Window washer accidents
  • Failure of adequate protection
  • Falls from elevated work sites
  • Respiratory damage
  • Broken equipment
  • Unsafe construction sites
  • Being struck by construction machinery
  • Slip-and-falls on uneven walkways

New York’s laws are tough on the construction injury. For example, if an employee is injured because of a fall from an elevated height while working, the owner of the site or its contractors may be strictly liable. Similar laws exist to protect window washers who have been injured. Statutes protect construction workers because of the inherent danger involved in their jobs.
Take advantage of the laws that are there for your protection. Our firm’s attorneys are knowledgeable in construction law, and we are able to move your injury claim as quickly as possible so that yu can get moving on with your life. We strive to help clients understand how New York’s labor laws may apply to their cases.

Unfortunately, construction accidents can be fatal. Our firm represents surviving family members and loved ones in wrongful death lawsuits that may be filed in order to seek justice and compensation for the loss.
