Construction Sites Pose Great Risks

It is no secret that construction is a high-risk profession. In 2007, construction workers experienced 135,350 injuries and illnesses, according to the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH). If you were injured on the job, you need a lawyer who will fight for your rights.

I understand the dangers you face. I am attorney David DeToffol and I was a New York State professional engineer. I have worked at construction sites and I know the mechanics of the equipment. Call me at 212-962-2220 to discuss your injury with a lawyer who understands your profession. Your consultation is free and there is no fee if we do not recover damages for you.

Construction Injuries Are Often Severe

The nature of construction work — elevated heights, electrical issues, heavy equipment, large vehicles — often leads to very serious injuries, including:

  • Hearing and eye injuries
  • Paralysis and loss of limbs
  • Broken and crushed bones
  • Burns
  • Electrocution
  • Nerve damage
  • Tendon, ligament and joint damage
  • Back, neck and spinal cord injuries

Wrongful Death

NIOSH reports that construction employs only about eight percent of U.S. workers, but accounts for 22 percent of the fatalities — the largest number of deaths reported for any industry sector.

There are many legal issues to work through in injury and wrongful death cases. You have to think about loss of income, medical expenses, funeral expenses and more. You need to protect your interests in the short and long term. We know what questions to ask and what information to collect. We are able to address issues you haven't thought about yet so you can concentrate on your recovery and moving on with your life.
