Construction type accidents are some of the worst and catastrophic accidents that someone can sustain often leading to permanent disabilities or death. These injuries can lead to a life time of physical pain, prohibit the victim from earning a living, enjoying their life and disrupting their family.
The law in New York is extremely specialized and requires attorneys with the understanding and legal expertise to navigate the complex statutory and legal principles required to litigate a construction accident case. All too often workers involved in these types of accidents are of the misconception that their only remedy is Workers’ Compensation. This could not be further from the truth. The right attorney with the right experience will be able to hold the negligent party responsible and recover monetary compensation for pain and suffering, lost wages, future and past medical care.
