Construction Site Accidents

Construction Accident Injury Lawyer in New York City

Accidents on construction sites, renovation projects or even routine building maintenance happen frequently in New York City. Injuries from such accidents where the accident victim falls from an elevated height performing his daily labor, can be serious, even deadly. This law firm has handled a significant number of construction site accident injury claims for injured clients and their families in Manhattan, Queens, Brooklyn, the Bronx and Long Island.

Third-party contractors and insurers are not concerned about helping injured claimants get what they need to recover. We are. At the Menkes Law Firm, in lower Manhattan, our goal for each client is to help them receive full and fair compensation for their injuries suffered.

We protect injured people's rights. Call Menkes Law Firm: 888-854-4026 or e-mail.

Our lawyer, Sheryl Menkes, has handled cases for clients who suffered serious, permanent and disabling work site injuries from:

  • Faulty scaffolding and falls from ladders or scaffolds
  • Falling objects from above
  • Falls into holes on construction sites
  • Electrocutions on construction sites
  • Collapses of scaffolds, platforms and ladders
  • Trips and falls at a construction site
  • Car accidents
  • Other slip and fall accidents

We Have Returned Meaningful Awards and Settlements

A recent case that our firm handled involved a lifeline attached to a bolt atop a roof, which gave way, causing our client serious, permanent injuries. These included massive internal injuries to both the liver and lung as well as broken bones. We were able to obtain a six figure settlement for him and his family.

In another recent matter, a preventable injury involving the sheath around the nerve of our client's thumb resulted in our returning compensation in excess of a million dollars.

We know how to research, investigate and build compelling and strategically sound cases. Our approach varies depending on each individual client's circumstances. Our commitment, however, remains the same: to bring justice and compensation for accident injury victims.
