Personal Injury Attorneys for Construction Accidents
New York Labor Law requires building owners and general contractors to provide safe equipment that adequately protects construction workers. At the law firm of Kantrowitz, Goldhamer & Graifman, P.C., our experienced personal injury lawyers have achieved successful recoveries for workers injured due to defective forklifts, bulldozers and other heavy machinery in New York and New Jersey.
These types of accidents can have serious consequences, including traumatic brain injury (TBI) and spinal cord injuries. We recognize that you may not know exactly how your accident occurred or who is ultimately responsible. Our firm will investigate and carefully review the events that led to your accident, and then file a personal injury claim to recover the full amount of financial compensation allowed under the law.
Do I Need a Lawyer After Forklift Accidents in NY or NJ?
Forklift or equipment failure can cause serious personal injury or even a fatal accident. While workers compensation benefits are available to address medical expenses and lost earnings, more substantial recoveries are often available through third party liability claims. Let us review your case to determine which types of viable claim you have based upon New York Labor Law.
Can I Afford a Lawyer After a Forklift Accident?
Our construction injury law firm can properly evaluate your accident and advise you of your legal rights after you have suffered a serious injury. In personal injury cases, we work on a contingency fee basis, so you will not pay attorney fees unless we recover a settlement or verdict.
