Scaffold Accidents

Construction

Shapiro Law Offices has an appreciation and compassion for construction workers who are seriously injured, or killed, in scaffold accidents.   These hardworking people are exposed to significant height-related dangers and hazards, while often not being provided with adequate safety devices.   As a result, serious injuries (and/or death) and significant economic losses often occur.   The Labor Law requires adequate safety devices be provided to ensure that construction workers are not injured in scaffold accidents.   The law places a duty on property owners, general contractors, and their agents to provide proper protection for workers using scaffolds at work sites.   This area of the law requires an attorney who has specialized knowledge of scaffold accident litigation, as it relates to construction workers.   Shapiro Law Offices has shown its dedication and level of expertise in this area by obtaining millions of dollars for construction workers involved in scaffold accidents.
