Construction Accidents
McMahon, Kublick & Smith, PC — Attorneys protecting workers throughout New York
Despite safety precautions, construction laborers are exposed to risk on a daily basis. When workers suffer injuries or death, injury attorneys at McMahon, Kublick & Smith, PC pursue every available path to recover compensation for them and their families.
Sadly, New York workers compensation law prohibits employees from suing their employers for on-the-job accidents and leaves injured laborers to recover workers compensation payments only from their employer. Often, workers compensation is insufficient, particularly for serious and long-term injuries.
Fortunately, an injured person can recover against a third party, such as a contractor, architect, manufacturer, property owner, or other person (except for a co-employee) or entity who may have been responsible for causing the injuries.
