Construction Accident Cases Our Firm Handles
CPLR § 240, often referred to as the scaffolding law, protects workers against elevation-related injuries while CPLR § 241 defines construction, excavation, and demolition safety standards. According to Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) statistics, the primary causes of construction site accidents are:
- Accidental slips, trips, and falls
- Being struck by equipment or vehicles
- Becoming caught in between objects
- Accidental shocks and electrocutions
Each of these categories can include multiple sub-categories. Review your case with a team member to determine whether the cause of your accident entitles you to compensation. We will investigate your accident and can consult with construction industry and medical experts to support your case.

Damages You Can Recover After a Construction Accident
The heavy equipment, large vehicles, and bustling environments of a construction site can lead to severe injuries and long-term disabilities. Construction accidents can also be fatal. Our team will help you recover the following post-accident damages:
- Injury-related lost wages
- Ongoing medical expenses
- Physical therapy and rehabilitation
- Physical pain and suffering
- Mental and emotional distress
- Wrongful death damages
When defining and assessing your recoverable damages, our team creates a defined list that helps ensure all valid damages are accounted for prior to making a settlement demand. Acting too quickly can mean some recoverable damages are not included in your compensation request. Delaying too long has risks as well.

Do Not Risk Losing Your Chance to Recover Compensation
Bohemia construction accidents are subject to New York State’s personal injury statute of limitations. According to CPLR § 214, it generally limits your right to file a lawsuit to three years from the accident date.
If you are the qualifying family member of a fatally injured accident victim, EPTL § 5-4.1, generally limits your right to file a lawsuit to two years from the date of your loved one’s demise.
The statute of limitations can be shortened under certain circumstances, like suing a municipality. In fact, you could have as little as 90 days to act. Our lawyer will clarify your actual filing deadline. He will also explain which family members qualify to file a wrongful death insurance claim or lawsuit.
