New York City Falling Injury Attorneys
An on-the-job construction site injury involving a fall from a roof or any height can leave you seriously injured or, in the most tragic cases, leave a family facing the loss of a loved one. In both cases, you may be entitled to compensation, often in addition to any workers' compensation benefits you receive, to help your family deal with the financial challenges inevitably created by the accident.
At Trolman, Glaser & Lichtman, P.C., our New York City roof fall attorneys have the experience and knowledge of New York labor laws to fully investigate your claim and explore all options for financial recovery.
Knowledgeable Workplace Accident and Personal Injury Lawyers
In many falling accident cases, property owners are liable for serious injury or wrongful death, and owe compensation in addition to any workers' compensation benefits you may receive. Our attorneys can represent you in bringing all appropriate litigation to recover the award you are owed.
Rely on our experience in cases involving falls from roofs or failures to provide functioning safety devices. Do not hesitate to call if you or someone you love has suffered an injury, such as:
- Head injury/brain injury (TBI)
- Back or spinal injury
- Broken bone injuries
- Paralysis
- Temporary or permanent disability
If you have fallen on a construction site from a roof, ladder or scaffolding, there are provisions covered under section 240 of the New York Labor Laws that can directly impact your case and your results. In this provision, liability is assigned to the owner of the property where you were hurt in a falling accident if any negligence on the part of the property owner is found.
What this means to you is that, if you are injured in any falling accident on a construction site, it is important to talk to a lawyer who understands how to pursue New York City workplace accident cases.
Even if you are an undocumented worker, your right to medical treatment and compensation is protected under New York State Laws.
