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?
