Common NY Construction Site Injury Claims
There are many different ways that injuries can happen on a construction site. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) sets out rules to keep the workplace safe, but hazardous situations can arise anyway. In fact, construction workers have some of the highest injury claims in New York. Consult with a New York worker’s compensation/personal injury attorney about legal actions if you suffered injury due to any of the following dangerous construction site circumstances:
- Improper ladder/scaffolding placement
- Malfunctioning machinery
- Obstructed walkways/stairs
- Negligent/careless co-workers
- Company vehicle accidents
- Falling objects
- Fires/explosions
- Electrocution
- Crushed/backed between walls, vehicles, etc.
Often, negligence is the cause for construction site accidents. Personal Injury Attorney Amedio knows that mistakes happen, but those who are responsible for injuring another person must be held accountable. Why fight a legal battle while also trying to heal? If you were injured at work, you may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. New York law office of Gerard V. Amedio has extensive experience in personal injury cases. Attorney Amedio can communicate your losses to the company’s insurance and fight for compensation that you are owed.
