Unsafe Workspace Lawyers In New York
Injuries Caused by Unsafe or Unkempt Workspaces
For construction workers, one of the most dangerous components of the job is a workspace that is dirty, improperly maintained, or otherwise unsafe. It is one of the most common causes of construction site injuries. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) standards and other regulations provide clear guidelines for general contractors, foremen, and others, yet these accidents continue to occur at alarming rates.
If you have been hurt on the job, contact an attorney from Restivo & Murphy LLP. We have more than 40 years of combined experience serving clients in New York City's 5 boroughs, as well as Long Island, Nassau County, and Suffolk County. We know how to handle cases involving the failure to maintain clean and safe workspaces.
We focus on severe catastrophic injury claims resulting from OSHA and other safety violations. Our lawyers have a thorough understanding of New York Labor Law 240 and other construction site injury laws in New York. We use this knowledge, as well as our tenacious approach to maximizing our clients' cases, to help you get the compensation you deserve.
