Construction | Scaffold | Worksite

Many hard working people doing construction and renovation work are injured while on the job. In many situations the worker is covered under Worker’s Compensation. However, there are many situations where the injured worker is entitled to bring a direct lawsuit against the owner and general contractor for pain and suffering under Labor Law § 200, § 240 or § 241. Construction site accidents happen for a variety of reasons including general negligence, an unsafe worksite, elevated risks, falling objects, crane or scaffold collapses, inadequate barriers, lack of safety equipment or industrial code violations. These injuries are often very serious and sometimes result in permanent disabilities. The attorneys at THE SAUL LAW FIRM, LLP have handled many construction site accidents and have recovered substantial money for their clients.
