New York Construction Accident Lawsuits
December 16, 2011 By Simon Eisenberg & Baum, LLP
If safety regulations and protocols were always followed, construction site accidents would be rare occurrences.
Unfortunately, individuals working at a job site can sometimes be careless and construction companies themselves often choose to ignore safety rules in order to maximize profits.
At Simon Eisenberg & Baum, LLP, our New York construction accident attorneys handle personal injury claims on behalf of injured construction workers throughout the New York City area and northern New Jersey. Scaffolding-related accidents and ladder falls account for a disproportionately high number of construction site injury cases in general, and of the cases our law firm has handled as well. As a result, our attorneys are well versed in New York Labor Law 240, specifically enacted to protect those working at elevated heights, and in many other state and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulations, which serve the same purpose.
In addition to scaffolding and ladder fall injury and wrongful death claims, we also handle construction accident lawsuits involving:
• Crane accidents;
• Trench collapses;
• Heavy machinery accidents;
• Electrocution accidents;
• Injuries caused by power tools and equipment; and
• Injuries caused by falling objects.
Whether you are seeking compensation for your own injuries or for the loss of a loved one, our attorneys will aggressively pursue your claim to ensure that you get the compensation you deserve. This area of our practice is managed by senior partner Eric M. Baum. Mr. Baum and the other members of our talented legal team personally work with each client from start to finish. Phones are answered 24 hours-a-day, seven days-a-week. If, for some reason, Mr. Baum or another team member cannot speak to you immediately, rest assured that we will get back to you promptly.
Lastly, we handle all construction accident and construction site injury lawsuits on a contingent fee basis, which means you will not be responsible for any legal fees unless our lawyers obtain a settlement or verdict award on your behalf.
