New York Construction Site Accidents Attorneys

Representing victims & families in The Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, Manhattan, and throughout New York since 1981

Construction sites are dangerous work zones. Due to the conditions faced by construction workers in their day-to-day work activities, the law has implemented a number of regulations and rules to ensure safety. Unfortunately, despite industry standards and state and federal laws regulating work zones, construction workers continue to suffer catastrophic injuries and fatal accidents at work. At The Orlow Firm, of New York, our construction site accident attorneys are dedicated to helping the victims of construction site accidents and their families recover maximum compensation for their work related injuries.

Construction site accident cases can be complex and require the assistance of experienced construction accident attorneys. Our team can provide the support and advocacy you need to get results.

Contact us today to speak to our experienced construction site accident lawyers. We are experienced with all of the following:

• Scaffolding
• Ladder accidents
• Improper Ladder Maintenance
• Forklift accidents
• Crane accidents
• Falling objects
• Brickwork injuries
• Burns, electrocution, and explosions
• Improper equipment
• Failing security measures
• Falling accidents
• Trench collapses
• Construction injuries and death
• Machinery defects
• Workers’ compensation

If you have been injured in a construction accident, you should contact a lawyer as soon as possible. Even if you are receiving workers’ compensation benefits, you may be eligible for additional damages if a third party, which is someone other than your employer or a coworker, caused your injuries. Examples of third parties are manufacturers, subcontractors, and landlords. Settlements and verdicts awarded to victims of construction accidents caused by third-party negligence are typically much greater than workers’ compensation awards.

Our New York construction accident attorneys are well prepared to provide the support and advocacy you need to obtain full compensation for your injuries. We will do a thorough investigation into the cause of your injury or accident. If an identifiable third party is found to be responsible, your opportunity for recovery is greatly enhanced.

Injuries to Pedestrians and bystanders
Even though laws regulating injuries to bystanders or non-workers are different, you may still be able to recover significant compensation for injuries you have sustained while on or near a construction site. If you or your loved one was injured by a falling object, collapse, or construction site related injury, do not hesitate to contact our firm for an initial consultation and case evaluation.

Fee Arrangement

At The Orlow Firm, we take all construction accident cases on a "contingent" basis. A contingent fee means that the attorneys are paid only at the time when, and if, you recover money damages for your construction accident. A contingent fee thereby allows an injured person with little or no financial resources to obtain competent legal assistance. At the time recovery is obtained, the attorneys’ fee is a percentage of the award in the case. If there is no recovery, there will be no attorneys’ fees.*

Free consultation: If you have recently suffered an injury or wonder if you have a legal claim, our qualified and experienced lawyers will offer a confidential and honest assessment of your case. Contact our office today.

We will come to you if you cannot come to us.
