New York and New Jersey Construction Crane Accident Lawyer

Protecting the Rights of Injured Persons for Over a Decade

Construction Site Safety • Wrongful Death

Construction site safety is a very important responsibility of landowners, contractors, building supervisors, and government entities charged with communicating and enforcing regulations. In the course of construction, a crane accident may cause serious injury or death. Cranes may collide with power lines, or collapse for a number of reasons. Heavy materials swinging on cranes may fall or hit workers while still attached by chains.

Workers' Compensation and Liability after a Crane Accident

When a Workers' Compensation claim is an appropriate means of obtaining compensation, we work to protect our clients' rights to full benefits after a crane accident at a job site. At the same time, we leverage the provisions of scaffolding-related labor laws to secure monetary relief for construction workers who have put their lives at risk in a construction capacity.

Knowledgeable Inspection Reveals Causes of Crane Accidents

If you or a loved one has been injured or killed in a crane accident in New York or New Jersey, it is important to have a knowledgeable construction law attorney arrange for a detailed investigation into questions such as the following:

• Did construction site supervisors comply with OSHA regulations regarding crane design, construction, inspection, and use?
• Was operator error a factor when a crane collided with a power line or severed a safety line, causing a worker to fall or be struck by materials hauled by the crane?
• Had all other equipment involved in the crane accident (cables, brakes, chains, straps, cement buckets) been properly maintained and inspected?
• Were loads properly secured? Was weight verified before lifting?
• Was the crane operated during hazardous conditions such as high wind?
