Excavation Work
Anyone who has ever worked on an excavation site knows firsthand the danger involved. Some of the excavation equipment is larger than a home or a small building. A lot can go wrong in this situation, and serious personal injuries are commonplace. When accidents happen involving equipment of this magnitude, when something goes wrong, it usually results in injuries that are catastrophic or fatal.
If you have sustained injuries or experienced the wrongful death of a loved one due to an excavation accident, contact us. Our New York construction excavation injuries attorneys can help you obtain the money you need and the justice you deserve.
With more than 40 years of experience, we have seen all kinds of excavation accidents, caused by:
- Unsafe equipment
- Supervisor negligence
- Improper signaling
- Falling objects and debris: In a recent case we handled, a construction worker was standing 15 feet away from a major piece of excavation equipment digging on the rock wall. The extraordinary vibrations of the work they were doing dislodged a boulder underneath the excavator, allowing it to roll over on top of the worker.
Money for undocumented immigrant workers: Don't let anyone (a supervisor or employer) tell you that you will be penalized if you report your injury. Contact us immediately. You are entitled to receive money for your construction site injuries even if you are an undocumented worker.
