New York’s Labor Law contains what is commonly referred to as the Scaffold Law. This law provides protection to workers who are injured by a fall during construction, demolition, or repair work to a building. Because working from heights is so dangerous the legal protection for workers in the scaffold law is quite strong to prevent any safety shortcuts. Contractors, owners and their agents will frequently be required to pay money compensation for injuries and harms sustained in a fall from heights.

FAQ
Have I got a case?
An experienced lawyer will be able in most situations to quickly ascertain if your claim or case is worth pursuing. Then you must decide on a course of action.
What will it cost me?
You will not pay a lawyer’s fee to our firm in an injury case unless there is a recovery and then only out of that recovery.
Are there deadlines?
Most personal injury claims in New York must be pursued in court within three years. But there are exceptions and shorter time frames that apply in some cases. So, since you’ve read this far, it is best to call us right away.
Will I have to go to court?
As experienced trial lawyers we know that some cases must go to trial. But most do not.
What is my case worth?
Experienced lawyers know that the value of a claim or case cannot be fairly assessed until medical records of the injury are thoroughly reviewed by the lawyer.
What can I expect from my first appointment?
A lawyer from our office will come to your home for the first visit if you need that. At that time you will be asked to provide information that is readily available to you. You do not need to chase items or do research.
