Workplace Accidents
Workplace accidents happen, but you can choose what happens next
A workplace-accident case may differ from a premises-liability case brought against an employer by an employee, such as a highway worker making a claim against a municipality.
- Construction site accidents
- Agricultural equipment accidents
- Railroad worker injuries
- Electrocution injuries
- Hospital injuries
- Asbestos / mesothelioma
- Toxic mold / sick building syndrome
- Workplace fairness
In some workplace cases, if a party other than the business owner creates a hazard, that party may be responsible for any injury that occurs to an employee who encounters the hazard.
New York Labor Law 240 provides special protections and provisions for compensation to workers injured due to a scaffolding accident or other injuries related to an elevated work space. Let us answer your questions about these provisions.
Practicing industry-specific safety measures is the responsibility of the individual contractors or professionals working on a given job site. Failure to do so may be an example of professional negligence in addition to creating an injury hazard at a workplace.
