Your Trusted Construction Accident Attorney in New York City
The construction law lawyers at Dalli & Marino, LLP are here to help you and your family. We have been providing top-tier representation for workers with construction injuries in New York City, Brooklyn, the Bronx, Queens, Staten Island, Nassau, Suffolk (Long Island), and Westchester County since 1995. Owners and general contractors on construction sites are responsible for workplace safety. However many of the safety regulations that must be followed are often ignored by those in charge. For example, if you are working on a ladder or scaffold, the construction site owner or general contractor must provide the appropriate safety equipment to prevent falls. If this is not done and you are injured as a result of a fall, the construction site owner or general contractor can be held responsible for your injuries.
Under most circumstances, you would be entitled to money damages for your pain and suffering in addition to Worker’s Compensation benefits. Our attorneys have recovered millions of dollars for worker’s injured on construction job sites.
