construction accident lawyer Ny

As we move even further out of the pandemic slowdown, construction activity keeps increasing. Unfortunately, this is leading to an escalation of serious construction site accidents.

Construction site supervisors must share comprehensive safety guidelines with all their workers, especially when newer or refurbished pieces of equipment are being used. What follows is...

Truck Driver Fatigue: A Leading Cause of Accidents in New York – Stats & Safety Measures

fatigued_truck_driver-lawfirm

Too many fatal accidents in New York and surrounding areas are caused by fatigued truck drivers who ignore federal driving safety regulations. In fact, CFR Section 395.3 specifically states that commercial truck drivers cannot start a new job shift until after they’ve been off work for 10  consecutive hours. When this safety statute is ignored, many other drivers can be easily injured since large trucks often weigh 20 to 30 times as much as most passenger vehicles. During the past decade, one of the worst trucker fatigue accidents involved a Walmart truck driver who hit another vehicle on the New Jersey...

ev-car-accident-lawyer

Fortunately, electric vehicle fires are far less common than those often seen on major freeways when gas-powered trucks and passenger cars collide and suddenly ignite. However, a single electric vehicle (EV) fire can prove so dangerous that it can require extensive fire department time and resources to fully extinguish it. Savvy car buyers should keep evaluating new EV technologies before purchasing one and possibly suffering catastrophic or fatal injuries. Anyone seriously harmed due to one of these fires deserves the help of a fully competent electrical vehicle accident lawyer who will be gathering evidence and documenting the incident.

Winning Personal Injury Cases Against Insurer Bad Faith Tactics

Personal Injury lawyer new york

Plaintiffs often assume that painful surgeries and medical treatments are the greatest challenges facing them after suffering serious injuries inflicted by a negligent defendant. Unfortunately, they’ll soon learn that the greatest threat of all is posed by deceitful insurance companies that rely on unethical practices to deny or manipulate even the most valid claims. In fact, many well-known insurance companies often quickly deny most claims in hopes of maximizing company shareholder profits. This practice is especially disturbing when the defendant’s liability is clear, and the badly injured policyholder has an immediate need to keep receiving the best medical care available. The following...

Contact our team at (212) 222-1111 for your free case evaluation.

Each day, close to 190 Americans die due to traumatic brain injuries. Even moderate head injuries can cause long-term harm. Teenagers between the ages of 15 and 19 are among those most at risk.

While helmets can help limit damage, they are not customarily worn by boys and girls during basketball and soccer games. And helmet usage is not yet universal for girls due to the non-contact rules that govern their lacrosse games. Unfortunately, it’s not always easy to quickly determine the...
