1. I was injured at work but I believe that my injuries were caused by someone
other than my employer or a co-worker. What can I do?
An injured worker may bring a claim for third party negligence. If your injuries
were the fault of someone other than your employer or fellow employee, then you
may have a potential claim. Examples of such a claim would be injuries caused by
the following:
- Unsafe scaffolding on
commercial projects
- Defective equipment, including
power tools, cranes, derricks, hoists, ladders, conveyors and vehicles
- Other contractors,
subcontractors or their employees
- Persons or vehicles not
involved in the construction project
- Negligence of a property owner
- Negligence of an architect
2. What if I fall from
scaffolding, a ladder or other elevation equipment?
In many instances, New York law strictly imposes liability on commercial or
municipal property owners when a worker falls during a construction project.
Under some circumstances, residential property owners may be held responsible as
well.
3. What if I have been injured on the job and I have questions about a
potential third party claim?
