Areas of Law Description
Edelman & Edelman, P.C. practices in the following areas:
- Construction Site Accidents
Some workplaces are more dangerous than others, and when the owners and managers fail to take proper precautions, the people who do the heavy lifting can be badly injured. Serious construction accidents inflict terrible suffering on hardworking people just trying to do a job. We can get you what you or deserve. That is why it is so important to consult a skilled construction accident lawyer if you have been involved in a construction site injury in New York City.
- Scaffolding Accidents
Every year many workers are killed or seriously injured while working on scaffolding. This occurs even though general contractors and sub-contractors implement a variety of safety measures. Most of the injuries involved in scaffold accidents are caused by either the planking or support giving way, or when the employee slips off or is struck by a falling object. Knowing your right and remedies in such injuries requires the skilled attorneys at Edelman & Edelman, P.C.
- Workers’ Rights to a Safe Workplace
People who are seriously injured at work are entitled to two forms of compensation -- what they get from worker's compensation claims, and what they get above and beyond those claims. Serious injuries at work are so often both devastating and preventable that we time and time again get people more than their worker's compensation claims alone would give them. If you were seriously injured on the job, please let us help you get everything you deserve.
