- Falls

- Electrocutions

Suffolk County Construction Accident Lawyer
When hurt in a work related injury, employees are entitled to workers' compensation coverage, which allows for recovery of a portion of one's weekly wages in addition to medical costs. The firm can ensure that all proper legal procedures are followed and that the person obtains all benefits they are entitled to. When the injury is caused by the negligence of a third party at the construction site, such as another contractor or defective machinery, a personal injury claim can be pursued which will allow for additional compensation to be recovered, including possible pain and suffering in addition to medical care and lost wages not covered by workers' compensation. These types of claims can be quite complex, requiring extensive investigation in order to prove negligence. The legal team at the firm has the resources and qualification to pursue this matter on your behalf.
