New York Ladder Fall Lawyers

Know Your Rights After an Injury at Work

If you have been injured in a ladder fall on a New York construction site, you do have rights. To best understand those rights, though, you do not want to rely on an employer or your employer’s insurer. They are there to protect themselves and their bottom lines.

Instead, turn to us, The Paris Law Group, PC. We put decades of experience to work on your behalf in order to protect your rights after you have been injured. Our ladder fall attorneys in New York can help you understand what your rights are, what your legal deadlines are, and how to exercise your rights effectively in the time allowed to you under the law.

Your rights are time-sensitive.Call our firm at (888) 365-4940 as soon as possible.

New York Laws Protect Workers Who Fall From Ladders

New York state labor laws protect those who build, repair, restore and modernize the buildings, roads, homes, schools, hospitals, and general infrastructure of the state. These laws also provide important rights and protection for those who work at elevated heights.

At The Paris Law Group, PC, we have an in-depth understanding of the New York labor laws as well as detailed knowledge of how they apply in ladder falls and other accidents involving elevated heights. Our ladder injury lawyers are aggressive litigators who are committed to seeking justice on behalf of construction site injury victims in Manhattan, Queens, Brooklyn, and all other boroughs.

Insufficient Training, Material Defects & Other Causes Of Accidents

According to a ladder accident study conducted by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the majority of accident victims (66 percent) never received training on how to properly inspect ladders for defects prior to use.

Other issues contributing to the accidents were:

  • Failure to secure the top of the ladder
  • Ladders that broke during use
  • Failure to secure ladders that are not self-supporting
  • Failure to extend the top of the ladder at least three feet above the level of the landing
  • Defects in manufacturing
  • Rungs or steps that were not uniformly spaced

To find out if any of these facts or others exist in your case, we will conduct our own thorough investigation of your accident. We do not just rely on what the employer or the insurer tells us. Our only loyalty is to you and no one else.

Our Experience Can Make the Difference for You

You can depend confidently on our experienced judgment in these situations. We know how to deal with contractors and the other players in the construction industry. We also know how they operate when it comes to injury cases.

For that reason, you should call us as soon as possible. Let us deal with the insurance adjusters and any other parties who say they are there to help you when they are really there to help themselves.
