Protecting Your Rights in Construction Accident Cases
Given the nature of construction work, where falling from a height or getting hurt in an equipment accident represent daily risks, the only surprise is that more workers aren't badly injured or killed. If you or a family member needs advice and legal representation in the aftermath of a severe construction accident, you can count on trial lawyer Fred Rabinowitz for individualized client service. Contact his office in Clifton for a free consultation about your options.
We help clients with both workers' comp and personal injury claims
An important advantage of working with Fred Rabinowitz is his ability to investigate and present claims under both the workers' compensation system and the personal injury process. In a workers' comp claim, you are entitled to lost income and medical expenses while you're recovering from your injuries. In a personal injury lawsuit, you can collect additional damages for projected economic losses and pain and suffering if you can prove that someone other than your employer was responsible for the accident.
With more than 30 years of New Jersey trial experience, Fred Rabinowitz knows how to analyze your case with a view toward maximizing your access to both workers' comp benefits and personal injury damages. We have access to numerous experts who can help prove aspects of liability and damages.
Most of our law firm's construction accident practice comes from referrals from previous clients, which shows that our reputation for effective client service is well known throughout the building trades in northern and central New Jersey.
Examples of the kinds of cases we can help resolve are the following:
- Excavation accidents, including trench collapse injuries
- Hi-Lo (forklift)
- Highway construction zone accidents
- Ladder, roof or scaffold injuries
- Crane accidents
- Demolition accidents
- Injuries suffered in infrastructure development or maintenance projects
