Construction Accidents
Construction accidents can have a devastating and long-lasting effect on a worker's life, especially in the case of immigrants. Litigation for compensation of injuries caused in such accidents in New York may include or only negligence claims, but also claims based on New York law, which require general contractors and construction site owners to take certain preventive security measures in specific situations. This is due to the inherent hazards that are inherent in work in construction areas.
Section 240 of the Labor Law requires contractors and owners of construction sites to provide protective measures for workers performing work at high altitudes, including office buildings and other skyscrapers. Scaffolding, ropes, cranes, supports and ladders are part of the equipment that must be used to prevent falls and to alleviate the impact of accidents. Similarly, Section 241 of the Labor Law requires construction companies and construction site owners to provide specific equipment to workers performing certain works, such as construction, excavation, and demolition work. Many of those obligations are "non-delegable" duties. Failure to provide this equipment may hold the general contractor responsible, to the owner of the construction area and even to other entities for any accident and each of them can be jointly and severely liable to satisfy an adverse judgment if the responsibility is based on a "non-delegable" duty. However, a successful monetary recovery may depend on representation by an experienced New York personal accident attorney. As in other personal accident cases, a victim's status - or lack thereof - has no impact on their ability to obtain compensation.

Personal Accidents
If you or a loved one were injured as a result of a car accident, a slip followed by a fall, a medical malpractice incident, or a wide variety of traumatic events, you have the right to seek compensation from those responsible. . Typically these cases are based on negligence claims, a legal theory that holds individuals and entities liable when they fail to take certain preventive measures or fail to respect the safety of others. The specific rule of caution in any particular case depends on the circumstances. For example, drivers are required to operate their vehicles in a reasonably safe manner. That means obeying traffic laws and avoiding engaging in dangerous activities like, for example, send mobile messages when behind the wheel. On the other hand, property owners are expected to take care to maintain it in reasonably safe condition and to give warning of dangers of which they are - or should be - aware.
Even if you are partly responsible for an accident, a personal accident attorney can still help you obtain some form of compensation. New York law even allows victims who have been partially responsible to recover a reduced sum of money for damages based on proportionate fault. Victims of motor vehicle accidents can benefit from a New York law that holds the defendant 100% of the damages, even if the defendant is equally at fault.
