🚨 $900,000 SETTLEMENT RESULT: ON-THE-JOB ACCIDENT 🚨

When an injury occurs at work, many employees assume worker’s compensation is their only legal option. However, if negligence by a third party—such as a property owner or building manager—contributes to the incident, additional legal remedies may be available.

Case Overview:
A 60-year-old woman experienced a severe slip and fall incident while working. Beyond her worker's compensation filing, our firm brought a third-party liability lawsuit directly against the building's owner for failing to maintain safe premises.

Impact & Recovery:
The fall resulted in a severe wrist fracture that required multiple surgeries. Our team fought to hold the property owner accountable, ultimately securing a $900,000 settlement for our client.

⚖️ Injured on the Job or on Someone Else's Property?

✅ Get checked by a doctor the same day, even if it feels minor
✅ File the no-fault application within 30 days
✅ Photograph the cars, the street and the traffic light before anything moves
✅ Get the police report number before leaving
✅ Talk to a lawyer before any recorded statement to an insurer

Which step do people skip most? Guess in the comments and we'll tell you 👇

✅ 2 years: wrongful death
✅ 3 years: most injury lawsuits against private parties (CPLR § 214)

🍂 Wet leaves are basically ice you can see.

One rainy October morning and the sidewalk turns into a slip-and-slide, and the crack or raised slab underneath disappears.

What a lot of New Yorkers don't know:
✅ In NYC, most building owners are legally responsible for the sidewalk out front (Admin Code § 7-210)
✅ That duty covers hazards on the sidewalk, not just the concrete itself
✅ Owner-occupied 1–3 family homes are the exception, where the City may be responsible, with a 90-day Notice of Claim deadline
✅ Photos of the exact spot matter more than people think

🚨 $200,000 MOTOR VEHICLE COLLISION RECOVERY 🚨

Complex lane-change and turning crashes frequently lead to contested claims. A 30-year-old driver executing a left turn from a middle lane collided with another vehicle turning left from the inside lane, causing spinal neck and back injuries.

Our firm built a strong case to secure $200,000 for his medical expenses and suffering.

What no one tells people after a crash with a delivery van: the driver may not be the only party responsible.

Many Amazon vans are operated by third-party Delivery Service Partners, not by Amazon directly. That structure can make it unclear who is accountable, and important evidence like GPS and telematics data may only be kept for a limited time.

Depending on the facts, liability in a delivery van accident may extend to the driver, the delivery contractor, and the parent company. Our latest blog explains how these cases work in New York, which evidence matters, and why the timeline matters.

🚨 $200,000 SETTLEMENT DESPITE CONTESTED LIABILITY 🚨

Insurance companies often blame cyclists after an intersection crash. When an 83-year-old bicyclist collided with a car—suffering a left wrist fracture requiring surgery—the driver claimed our client made an improper left turn into her car.

We pushed back against the insurance company's arguments and successfully recovered $200,000.

📍 Don't let an insurer deny your claim just because they contest liability.

Was no one going to tell me that "I had the green" isn't the whole question?

T-bone crashes are the intersection crash. And the green light is where the argument STARTS, not where it ends.

What actually gets fought over:
✔️ How long the yellow lasted before it changed
✔️ What was blocking the view — parked cars, scaffolding, trees
✔️ Whether a turning driver had to yield
✔️ How fast each car was going
✔️ Where each car got hit, and at what angle
✔️ Any camera footage from nearby stores or homes

Q: Why does the damage angle matter so much? A: It usually shows who entered the intersection first — more reliably than either driver remembers.

Q: What evidence gets overlooked? A: Nearby cameras. Often the only neutral record, and a lot of them record over themselves within days.

Think workers' comp covers it? Think again — it covers part of it.

Falls are the number one killer on construction sites. In New York, they're also where the biggest gap sits between what workers get and what they could actually claim.

WORKERS' COMP:
✔️ Pays no matter whose fault it was
✔️ Approved medical treatment + part of your lost wages
✖️ Nothing for pain and suffering
✖️ Generally the only claim you have against your employer

THE SECOND CLAIM — NEW YORK'S SCAFFOLD LAW:
✔️ Goes after the property owner and the general contractor
✔️ Covers falls from scaffolds, ladders, hoists and unguarded openings — and objects falling from above
✔️ The owner and GC can't sign that responsibility away in a contract
✔️ Reaches everyone comp can't: the owner, the GC, other trades, equipment makers

Q: Can you have both at the same time? A: In a lot of New York cases, yes. They run side by side.

(That's Labor Law §240, if you want to look it up.)

Share this with someone on a site. Most workers only ever hear the first half.

You've been doing this ALL WRONG. (Here's why.)

What you do in the first hour after a job site injury decides what proof still exists six months from now.

1️⃣ PHOTOGRAPH THE THING, NOT THE INJURY. The scaffold. The plank. The missing guardrail. Where the ladder was standing. That site gets finished and cleared long before anyone asks what conditions were like.

2️⃣ REPORT IT IN WRITING, SAME DAY. Telling your foreman doesn't leave a record. A written report with a date on it does.

3️⃣ GET NAMES, NOT JOB TITLES. Guys move to other sites. And you need the general contractor and every sub on that job — because New York's Scaffold Law goes after the property owner and the GC, not your employer.

Q: Why does that last part matter? A: Workers' comp is generally the only claim you have against your employer. The second claim reaches everyone comp can't.

(Labor Law §240, if you want to look it up.)

Send this to someone on a site. Most crews learn it after they need it.
