Manhattan ● White Plains ● Poughkeepsie ● Southern Connecticut

Construction sites can be dangerous places to work--especially when proper maintenance and safety precautions have not been taken. If you have been injured while working on a construction site, you may need the services of a lawyer to help ensure that you receive the proper treatment and compensation.

At the law firm of O'Connor, McGuinness, Conte, Doyle & Oleson, we have extensive experience handling construction accident cases on behalf of injured workers. Contact us today to discuss your individual legal needs with an experienced construction accident attorney.

Our firm has handled construction accident cases against contractors, property owners, subcontractors, employers, and other negligent individuals working on construction sites. We can readily handle cases involving negligence, inadequate supervision, and/or statutory liability. Typically our construction accidents cases involve the following injuries or accidents:

• Scaffolding falls resulting in injury or death
• Falls from ladders
• Crush injuries
• Unmarked holes
• Faulty equipment
• Negligent operation of equipment
• Negligent supervision
• Electrocution
• Burn injuries
• Amputation

We will perform a comprehensive evaluation of the facts involved in order to assess liability. When you retain our services, you may rest assured that we will handle the insurance companies on your behalf and advocate effectively for the compensation you deserve.

Once liability has been established, we will then represent our clients in the recovery of needed medical costs and lost wages, among other damages, such as past and future pain and suffering, as well as future lost wages. We work closely with a network of rehabilitation experts and economists to determine our clients' immediate and long term recovery needs.

If a fair settlement cannot be achieved through negotiations, our attorneys will aggressively pursue compensation at trial. We are highly-skilled and determined advocates. O'Connor, McGuinness, Conte, Doyle & Oleson is the second oldest litigation firm in the New York metropolitan area and the oldest in Westchester County. We have a long history of achieving successful outcomes for our clients in personal injury cases and will work diligently to achieve the best possible outcome for you.

In addition to representing injured construction workers, we also represent the family members of fatal accident victims.

Contact us today to discuss your individual legal needs and concerns in a free initial consultation with a trusted construction accident attorney. We handle these cases on a contingency basis--meaning you will not be charged a fee unless we recover damages.
