Common Construction Accidents

Unfortunately, it is all too common for careless behaviors and actions to be displayed on many construction worksites; the kind of carelessness that makes them very dangerous and lead to serious accidents. This is why we make sure our construction accident attorneys are prepared to advocate for our clients in all types of construction accident cases, including, but not limited to, the following:

Falling hazards

We represent workers with head, neck, back, and other injuries caused by falling from a height, or who were injured by a falling object.

Scaffolding problems

Injuries on scaffolding are typically due to a failure to provide proper protection. If OSHA standards aren’t followed, it can lead to devastating accidents and injuries.

Vehicle and equipment accidents

Whether you were driving a truck or operating a site vehicle that resulted in an injury, our team can evaluate and advocate for you if mistakes were made.

Crane accidents

As one of the largest pieces of equipment on a job site, work accidents involving cranes can lead to catastrophic injuries.

We Put Labor Laws to Work for You

If you are injured on a construction site in New York, you are also entitled to significant legal protections under the state’s Labor Laws.

It is essential to consult with experienced attorneys who can help navigate these complex statutes and can effectively pursue claims against owners, general contractors, and others.
