Call today for a free consultation to learn how we can protect your rights and fight for the maximum compensation you deserve.
Common Job Site Accidents in Brooklyn
Job site accidents can happen in any industry, but some of the most dangerous workplaces include construction sites, factories, and warehouses. Common accidents include:
- Falls from heights – Scaffolding, ladders, and rooftops are common hazards.
- Slip and falls – Slippery surfaces, loose wires, and debris can lead to serious injuries.
- Struck by objects – Falling tools, building materials, or heavy equipment can cause severe trauma.
- Electrocutions – Faulty wiring, exposed electrical lines, and unsafe machinery pose risks.
- Machinery accidents – Defective or poorly maintained equipment can lead to catastrophic injuries.
- Trench collapses – Construction trenches can cave in, trapping and injuring workers.
No matter how your accident happened, Cellino Law is here to fight for your rights.
Workers’ Compensation vs. Third-Party Lawsuits
If you are injured on the job, you may be eligible for workers’ compensation, which covers:
✔ Medical expenses – Treatment, rehabilitation, and ongoing care.
✔ Lost wages – A portion of your income while you recover.
✔ Disability benefits – Compensation for permanent injuries.
However, workers’ compensation may not be your only option. In some cases, you may be able to file a third-party personal injury lawsuit if someone other than your employer was responsible for your accident. This could include:
- A contractor or subcontractor who created unsafe conditions.
- A property owner who failed to maintain a safe environment.
- A manufacturer of defective tools or machinery.
A third-party claim allows you to seek full compensation, including pain and suffering—something workers’ compensation does not cover.
What Compensation Can You Recover?
If you were injured due to someone else’s negligence, our Brooklyn job site accident lawyers can help you recover damages, including:
- Medical costs – Current and future medical expenses.
- Lost income – Compensation for missed work and loss of future earning potential.
- Pain and suffering – Physical pain, emotional distress, and reduced quality of life.
- Wrongful death damages – If you lost a loved one in a job site accident, we can help your family seek justice.
At Cellino Law, we fight for every dollar you deserve.
