Serious New York City Stairway, Ramp, Sidewalk and Parking Lot Injuries

Posted by Arkady

in Personal Injuries, Premises Accidents, Slip & Fall Accidents

New York City residents constantly suffer serious injuries while driving in parking lots. They also get hurt when using stairways, ramps and sidewalks. One major medical journal article states that at least one million Americans injure themselves annually on staircases. Although roughly 50% of all homes have staircases, many of these accidents also occur in the workplace. While many people injured on stairs are much older, two-thirds of those who seek emergency room treatment for stairway injuries are between the ages of eleven and sixty. Stairway accidents often occur because people are distracted -- or because of design hazards. In some...

New York City Blunt Force Injury Accident Attorneys

Posted by Arkady

in Construction Accidents, Personal Injuries

At present, Americans age 44 and younger are most likely to die of injuries sustained in motor vehicle crashes, falls or homicides. Blunt force injuries to the abdomen and brain account for a very large percentage of these deaths. No one is fully safe from these events since statistics indicate that they hold true regardless of one’s race, economic status or age. Although serious falls often plague the very young and old, a large percentage of falls also occur in the workplace. Every year, many New York City construction workers suffer blunt force trauma when they fall off scaffolding or are...

When trying to decide which attorney you should hire, it’s always best to choose the most experienced, knowledgeable and personable lawyer available.

Welders Face Many Safety Hazards on NYC Construction Sites

Posted by Arkady

in Construction Accidents

Welders are crucial to every major construction site project. They’re kept busy using intense heat sources while welding together many different types of parts during all phases of erecting or renovating a building. Although many of their most exacting tasks must be handled in confined spaces, welders must also be prepared to take their tools outdoors to work on scaffolding or different levels of buildings under construction. Besides using their hands, welders often use various tools and machines to weld parts together. They also sometimes need to repair parts that require stronger metal seams -- or that have holes or indentations...

Queens Pedestrian Accident Lawyer

Posted by Frekhtman & Associates

in Personal Injuries

Pedestrian accidents happen much too frequently in Queens and all other New York City boroughs. Furthermore, many of these events result in long-term, physical disabilities – if not immediate or later deaths. One of these tragic events took place on July 1, 2018, on Myrtle Avenue in the Ridgewood section of Queens. Early that morning, a recently retired housekeeper, wife and mother was hit and severely injured by a careless hit-and-run driver who had raced through a red light. The 63-year-old victim was then rushed to Wyckoff Hospital where she fought hard to survive her injuries. Unfortunately, on July 16th, she passed...

Posted by Frekhtman & Associates

in Accident Injuries, Construction Accidents

New statistics indicate that carpenters and all other New York City construction site workers now face even greater threats to their safety while on the job. In fact, during one recent year, construction worker deaths rose by four percent – leading to 937 lost lives. Carpenters are among those handling the most highly detailed construction site tasks. While some specialize in building frameworks for floors, walls and doorframes, others spend their days building staircases, shelving and window frames. In addition, carpenters must master the use of many potentially dangerous tools. On some days, they must also climb up high on ladders...

Falling Object Accidents Expose Workers and Innocent Bystanders To Grave Risks

Posted by Frekhtman & Associates

in Construction Accidents, Falling Objects, Pedestrian Accidents

In New York City’s boroughs and beyond, falling objects repeatedly threaten the safety and well-being of innocent bystanders and workers alike. The region is one of the most densely populated in the entire country, and the prevalence of high-rise structures increases gravity-related accidents. Sometimes, larger objects like crane booms fall to the ground, resulting in injury and/or death. For example, in February 2016, a boom crashed to the ground in TriBeCa, killing a man from the Upper West Side. Smaller objects can also severely injure private citizens and workers, particularly when they fall large distances. Case Study: Falling Hammock On Tuesday, April 25,...

Overcoming Juror Bias in New York City Motorcycle Accident Cases

Posted by Frekhtman & Associates

in Motorcycle Accidents

When presenting a New York City motorcycle accident case, it’s often challenging for lawyers to persuade jurors to put aside all their negative opinions about motorcyclists. All too often, jurors assume that most motorcyclists carelessly ignore traffic laws, enjoy speeding and often weave in and out of traffic with little or no regard for other people’s safety. The truth is that only a small percentage of motorcyclists ride in a foolish manner – as we often see in TV shows and movies. Most motorcycle riders aren’t unruly gang members who disregard traffic laws and enjoy suddenly pulling up in the blind...
