At the Law Offices of Altagracia Nunez Personal Injury Law Firm, You Are Our Top Priority. Typical causes of serious construction accidents include:

  • Defective ladders, or ladders in need of repair or replacement
  • Improperly constructed or manufactured scaffolding
  • Unsecured tools and lack of appropriate tools which must be readily available to workers.
  • Insufficient training on work equipment
  • Falling objects, and failure to use canopies or safety nets to catch a falling worker
  • Failure to conduct regular safety meetings and inspections
  • Open or uncovered holes on construction zone property

If a construction worker is injured on the job, the owner and the general contractor are responsible — even if the injury was caused by the worker’s negligence and workers’ compensation benefits are rarely ever enough to cover accident-related expenses. It is important to hold every negligent party accountable, as well as their insurance companies. “La Gana Demanda” Altagracia Nunez does this for you on a contingency fee basis. You will never be billed before our work begins, and you will owe no attorney fee unless we win your case.

Your health and employment future can hinge on the outcome of your personal injury claim. Contact the Law Offices of Altagracia Nunez today to arrange your free initial consultation. Call us at 212-785-0800 or send us an email.
