Identifying the Specific Defect That Caused Your Accident
A scaffold is an extremely complex device with many parts, including both parts that hold it in place and parts designed to provide safety and security for workers. There are many different types of defective scaffolding that can cause serious accidents, including the following:
- Defectively manufactured tubes, couplers, boards, ladders and ropes
- Scaffolding that has not been erected properly
- Improper scaffolding materials for the task at hand
Under Labor Law 240, products liability law and other New York state law, general contractors, property owners and the manufacturers of scaffolding equipment are just some of the parties that can be held accountable for the consequences of scaffolding accidents.
Pursuing the Full Compensation You Legally Deserve
I am passionate about holding negligent parties accountable for the serious injuries suffered by workers who are put to work on defective scaffolding. I am prepared to go up against powerful companies and their insurance companies to protect my clients' rights.
