In the State of New York, there is something called the Labor Law. This is not about employment relations between employers and employees, but this is to give people injured in construction accidents a right to sue contractors and owners of property where there is a construction site in order to get compensation. The Labor Law involves typically either a fall from a height or some object falling from a height onto a worker who becomes injured. If you’re injured as a result of a construction accident involving a height, the Labor Law applies. There are certain sections that apply depending on the situation. Section 200, section 240, and section 241 are the relevant sections of the Labor Law that cases usually arise from. If you are injured in such an accident, please contact me and I’ll be happy to assist you in your case and evaluate your case with you.
