Construction vehicles are massive and powerful work machines, built to take care of business on a job site. All too often, however, construction vehicles cause serious accidents and injuries to those on the job site and to other drivers on the road.If you have been injured by any kind of construction vehicle, you need to speak to an attorney who understands construction accidents. The D'Amato Law Firm has decades of experience representing people injured in construction accidents involving heavy work machines of all kinds.

-Crane Accidents

Crane accidents result in injuries and fatalities at construction sites every year. According to a study by Anthony J. Suruda, M.D., of the University of Utah, more than 500 U.S. construction workers died on the job from 1984 to 1994 as the result of crane accidents. Contact with power lines, cranes overturning and accidents during assembly and dismantling were among the top causes of crane accidents.

-Job Site Injuries

Atlantic City always seems to be under construction. Despite state and federal safety regulations, construction accidents are all too common. If you were injured in a construction accident at a hotel, casino, residential or commercial property, or a road or bridge project, you should talk to an attorney who is experienced in getting results for victims of job site accidents.

-Scaffold Collapse

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, 88 workers died from scaffold collapse accidents or falls from scaffolding during 2006. Falls from ladders accounted for 733 deaths. More than 160 workers died in falls from roofs.

If you or a family member has been injured in a bicycle accident or pedestrian accident (such as walking, exercising outdoors or crossing an intersection on foot), we encourage you to contact our law office in Linwood, New Jersey.

-Boating Accidents

There were more than 205,000 registered watercraft in the state of New Jersey in 2006, according to U.S. Coast Guard records. The vast majority of those vessels are owned by responsible owners who understand and comply with boating safety regulations.However, every year people are seriously injured or killed in boating accidents caused by negligence or carelessness on the part of a boat owner.

-Bus Accidents

Bus accident cases are a complex area of the law. Bus accident claims often involve multiple defendants, multiple plaintiffs and complex insurance coverage issues. If you have been injured in a bus accident, it is important to contact an experienced personal injury attorney.

-Drunk Driver Accidents

Drunk drivers cause hundreds of accidents, injuries and fatalities in New Jersey every year. Of the 771 people who died in traffic accidents during 2006 in the state, 285, or 37 percent, of the fatal crashes involved drinking and driving.If you were injured in a drinking and driving car wreck or if a member of your family died in a DUI crash, you have a right to obtain financial compensation for damages.

-Jitney Accidents

Atlantic City's jitneys are as much a part of the city as the boardwalk and casinos. Jitneys are independently owned and operated buses that transport passengers throughout the city, to and from hotels, casinos, amusement parks and the train station.

-Motorcycle Accidents

If you have been injured in a motorcycle accident, protect your rights. Contact an attorney before you talk to the insurance company. Too often, people injured in a motorcycle accident make statements to an insurance provider that limit their ability to recover medical expenses, lost wages and the cost of long-term rehabilitative care.

-Truck Accidents

Every year there are numerous commercial truck accidents in New Jersey that cause serious injuries. Fatal truck accidents are not all that uncommon on the larger roads and highways like the NJ turnpike, Garden State Parkway, and Atlantic City Expressway. If you've been involved in a truck accident you should talk to a lawyer with extensive experience handling these types of cases about your legal rights and options as soon as possible.

-Slip and Fall Accidents

Owners of property owe a duty of reasonable care toward visitors to their premises. If you have been injured on the property of a business or a private homeowner, you may have a basis for a slip and fall claim or other premises liability claim.

-Elevator and Escalator Accidents

With its casinos and amusement parks, Atlantic City, New Jersey, gets more visitors each year than Las Vegas. The escalators and elevators in our hotels and casinos run 24 hours a day, 365 days a year in order to get our visitors where they want to go.With the demands of constant operation and heavy use, elevators and escalators can break down and cause serious accidents, injuries and wrongful death.

-Casino Accidents

With the large number of casinos throughout the New Jersey area, many people are injured every year in accidents on casino property. At the D'Amato Law Firm, we handle all serious injuries and fatal accidents that occur at casinos.If you or a family member has been injured in a casino accident, we encourage you to contact our law office in Egg Harbor, New Jersey.

-Assault and Battery

Nothing is more damaging to a person's sense of security than a physical attack. For most attack victims, the physical injuries pass long before the traumatic memories of an unexpected and unprovoked assault. If you have been the victim of an attack by a human or an animal, the D'Amato Law Firm can help.

-Amusement Park Accidents

People have been enjoying Atlantic City's amusement parks since the opening of Ocean Pier, the world's first ocean side amusement pier built in 1882. People have also been sustaining injuries from theme parks and amusement parks since there creation. Nearly every year, people have been seriously injured or killed in New Jersey amusement park accidents.

-Automotive Defects

An airbag that deploys too soon — or too late. Brakes that aren't powerful enough to stop a car in an emergency. Tires that blow out and cause loss of vehicle control. Gas tanks that catch on fire or cause explosions.These are just some of the auto defects that injure or kill thousands of people in the U.S. every year. If you have been injured because of bad car design or by a defective auto component, the attorneys of the D'Amato Law Firm are here to help.

-Drug Recalls

Many people assume that pharmaceutical products, like Fosamax or Yaz, have been thoroughly tested and approved before being made available to the public. Unfortunately, many times pharmaceutical companies perform only the minimum tests required to make the drug available as soon as possible.

-Medical Device Recalls

When hip replacements or defibrillators are meant to alleviate the stress of ongoing hip pain or heart trouble, it can be frustrating and disheartening when those devices fail. After all the time and money you put into rehabilitation, it doesn’t seem fair to pay for another device that may or may not resolve your medical issue.

-Brain and Spinal Cord Injuries

-Burns

Burn injuries are extremely painful. Even with specialized medical treatment in a burn unit, burn injury victims are often left with severe and permanent scarring.If you have been seriously burned because someone else was negligent, you have a right to recover financial compensation for your medical treatment, rehabilitation expenses, lost wages or income and other damages.
