The New York City personal injury law firm of Andrew L. Weitz & Associates, P.C., has extensive experience representing construction workers injured in a wide range of construction-related accidents, including accidents caused by faulty equipment.
We are equipped to represent injured workers in all types of construction and warehouse equipment accident cases, whether the accident involved a crane, hi-lo, forklift, bucket truck, cherry picker, dump truck or other type of construction equipment.
The Complex Nature of Construction Equipment Accidents
Construction equipment accident cases are complicated for three primary reasons.
- Uncovering All the Defendants: It can be difficult to uncover exactly who the responsible parties are. Who are the project owners? Who are the contractors, suppliers and vendors? Our attorneys have decades of successful experience with complex personal injury litigation involving multiple defendants.
- An Engineer's Perspective: Determining the cause of the accident requires understanding of how construction equipment is intended to function. In addition to our decades of experience as trial attorneys in construction accident cases, attorney Jessica Villalobos of our law firm holds an engineering degree in addition to her law degree, giving us an engineer's insight into our client's case.
- Serious Injuries — Experience and Education: Injuries caused by construction equipment are often severe; building a strong case on behalf of a seriously injured worker requires working closely with medical and financial experts to construct a complete picture of the injured person's current and future medical needs. Our law firm has a special focus on personal injury lawsuits arising from accidents that cause serious trauma like traumatic brain injury or spinal cord damage. Furthermore, attorney Andrew Weitz holds a doctorate in cognitive science in addition to his law degree.
