Falls From Heights Attorney in Englewood, New Jersey

Catastrophic Fall from Heights Injuries

When a construction project is begun, proper precautions need to be taken to protect the safety of workers. Unfortunately, falls still happen on construction sites. At the Law Office of Jeffrey I. Amtman, our attorney handles construction accident cases that involve falls from small to large heights. Falls can cause injuries that can be permanent and leave a worker disabled and unable to work. We can pursue workers’ compensation benefits for you, as well as explore a third-party claim once the negligent party has been established.

Any time a construction worker is up on a scaffold, ladder or part of a building, there is always the potential for danger. New York and New Jersey have labor laws that require certain safety measures to be taken, such as workers having harnesses and safety vests. However, these do not always prevent falls from happening. Contact an attorney at the Law Offices of Jeffrey I. Amtman in Englewood, New Jersey, to learn more about how we handle these cases.
