Earlier this week, partner Matt Rice and our client braved scorching temperatures to conduct a site inspection where our client - a construction worker - was struck by a nearly 1,000-pound industrial fan that fell during its removal from the premises.

Cases like this implicate New York's Labor Law, including Sections 200, 240, and 241(6) - statutes specifically designed to protect workers from gravity-related hazards on construction sites.

At our firm, we leave no stone unturned. Walking the site ourselves gives us a deeper understanding of how an accident happened and reflects the level of preparation we bring to every case we handle.

If you or someone you know was injured in a construction accident, call us at (845) 639-9300 or visit pilaw.com. We have decades of experience with these cases - and before joining the firm, Matt spent years defending these very claims for some of the country's largest construction companies, giving us rare insight into how these defenses are built and how to overcome them.
