How Our Legal Team Fights for Injured Construction Workers

When you contact McCabe, Coleman, Ventosa & Patterson PLLC, our team of devoted construction injury lawyers will quickly get to work on your case. Here are just a few ways that our construction injury attorneys fight for clients throughout New York:

Investigate your construction accident and gather solid evidence.

Every strong case starts with a thorough and swift investigation into the facts. Our seasoned construction accident attorneys know what to look for in these types of claims and will work quickly to preserve the evidence needed to prove your case.

Track medical records to document your construction accident injuries.

Next our team will begin working closely with you to follow your medical treatment. We will gather medical bills and other records in order to prove your injuries, including future medical costs.

Consult with skilled experts.

In complex cases, our construction injury attorneys often consult with medical experts, engineers, government safety specialists, and economists. These expert opinions strengthen your claim and allow us to present your case in a persuasive and compelling way during insurance company negotiations and jury trials.

Negotiate aggressively with construction insurance companies.

Our respected legal team handles all the negotiation, so you don’t have to. We will demand fair and just compensation from insurers and will advise you on any construction accident injury settlement offers.

Handle liens and bills from medical providers.

In most cases, there are substantial medical bills, provider liens, and even government liens (e.g. Medicaid and Medicare), as well as potential health insurance or other liens. Our construction injury law firm will work to help you sort through these complex issues.

Advocate for your best interests at trial.

If a settlement can’t be reached, our trial lawyers have the experience to fight for the compensation you deserve, whether through mediation, arbitration, or a jury trial.

Your Compensation in a Construction Accident Claim

The compensation you may receive will depend on a variety of factors, including: the nature of the accident, your injuries, your medical expenses, future medical expenses, your lost income or wages, and a variety of other issues. In New York personal injury cases, you have a right to pursue compensation for:

  • Conscious pain and suffering
  • Medical expenses (past and future)
  • Lost wages (past and future)
  • Disability or disfigurement

After a serious construction accident injury, an insurance company may try to offer you a quick and easy settlement to close out your case. Do not accept any settlement offer without having it reviewed by a knowledgeable construction injury attorney.

Time Limits on Construction Accident Claims

Every state has its own statute of limitations on filing a civil lawsuit for personal injuries such as construction accident injuries. In New York, you generally have two years from the date of injury to pursue a personal injury claim. However, in certain circumstances, such as where a municipal entity is at fault, the time frames may be substantially shorter. Don’t hesitate to consult with us about your case.


If you or a loved one has been seriously injured in a construction site accident, you need to seek legal help as soon as possible. Contact our construction accident law firm today for a free consultation on your case. We handle these cases on a contingency-fee basis, meaning we only get paid if you get paid.
