Construction Site Injuries
Generally, if injury occurs on the job in New York State, you are limited to receiving Workers’ Compensation benefits.
However, in construction site injuries and death, owner’s of the property and the contractors have a duty to workers and sub contractor’s workers to keep the premises in a reasonably safe condition.
If you fall from a scaffold, ladder, height or if gravity is involved, the landowner and contractors have an absolute duty to the worker.
In this kind of case, it is extremely important to consult an attorney at the earliest time in order to be able to do a proper and timely investigation to protect your rights and to get the maximum amount of information at the earliest time.
