New York Construction Worker Injury Lawyers

Are you a construction worker who has been left with injuries and medical bills after an on-the-job accident?

New York construction workers have one of the most dangerous jobs in the state, with many facing deadly heights, busy highways, hazardous materials, and unsafe jobsite conditions. Working in one of the largest and busiest metropolitan areas in the world, construction workers in New York City and the surrounding areas of Westchester County, Rockland County and Nassau County depend on contractors, property owners, and state regulators to keep their work sites safe and hazard-free – but all too often construction workers are injured and killed because of the negligence of others.

At Lever & Stolzenberg, LLP, we stand up for the rights of New York’s construction workers. We understand that employers and landowners are obligated to protect their workers, but that some companies cut corners and ignore safety regulations in order to save money or complete jobs faster. We also understand that a serious injury can cost a construction worker dearly – resulting in large medical bills, lost wages, and perhaps the end of a career.

We represent injured New York construction workers that have been involved in the following on-the-job accidents:

•    Slip, trips, and falls
•    Scaffolding collapse and structure collapse
•    Ladder accidents
•    Crane accidents
•    Falling objects
•    Electrical hazards
•    Burn accidents
•    Heavy machinery accidents
•    Toxic material accidents
•    Accidents involving unsafe work conditions
•    Accidents involving lack of protective equipment
•    Accidents involving negligent construction companies

Winning NYC construction accident injury cases take knowledge and experience

Fighting for compensation in the wake of a construction accident injury can mean fighting behemoth construction companies, contractors, and insurance companies – all of which have likely dealt with injured workers in the past. These big companies are sure to have top-notch legal representation with extensive experience and knowledge. Make sure you do too.

Our top priority is to accurately evaluate your construction accident case and then secure your rightful compensation – an amount that could include medical bills, pain and suffering, lost wages, and loss of future wages. While working on your case, our sole focus is to make certain that you receive the damages you deserve, return your life to some form of normalcy, and to ensure that accidents like the one that happened to you does not happen to someone else.
