Our recoveries are among the highest on record in New York State. (See our Frequently Asked Questions which provides information on any general questions you may have if you were in a construction accident). Some of the cases that we have handled on behalf of Staten Island construction workers, and other local workers, include the following:
As construction lawyers, we have aggressively investigated and litigated these complex cases, and have had dozens of other significant recoveries after going to trial, or the mediation table before trial. We also have extensive experience in Appellate work when that becomes necessary in these highly contested cases. In recognition of our offices outstanding achievements in Labor Law cases, including our tremendous success fighting for construction workers, Louis Grandelli has been selected by his peers in the New York State Bar to Super Lawyers for the past 6 years. He has also been selected as to Best Lawyers in America for the past 3 years. Our firm was also named as a Best Law Firm for the third year in a row, 2015-2017.
The New York State Labor Law and Industrial Code were enacted to protect construction workers in recognition of the fact that large construction companies often care more about profits than worker safety. However, the companies who defend construction accident claims are typically hired by a major insurance carrier with vast resources, and they vigorously defend every claim, no matter how meritorious. Therefore, it is critical that you hire an attorney who has the resources, knowledge, and experience to fight for you and your family to ensure you are not limited to workers compensation benefits. This does not allow an accident victim to recover for many of the types of damages which can be obtained in lawsuits.
