    Establishing Negligence in Queens Village Construction Accidents

    Proving negligence in a construction accident claim in New York requires demonstrating that a party owed a duty of care, breached that duty, and caused your injuries as a result. On a construction site, this could involve a contractor failing to secure scaffolding properly, a property owner not maintaining safe conditions, or an equipment manufacturer providing faulty machinery. Every detail matters, from safety protocols and training records to maintenance logs and eyewitness accounts.

    At Law Office of Seni Popat, P.C., we carefully examine each case to identify where negligence may have occurred. Our team reviews contracts, safety reports, and worksite conditions to determine which parties may be responsible for your injuries. We also consult with experts when necessary to provide evidence on technical issues, such as machinery malfunctions or structural failures. By thoroughly investigating the circumstances of your accident, we help ensure that every potential factor contributing to your injury is considered. 

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Can I pursue a claim if I was injured while performing a subcontractor’s work?

    Yes. Injuries involving subcontractors often raise questions about responsibility. In many cases, you may be entitled to file a claim against the subcontractor or other parties, even while receiving benefits from your employer. 

    Are there special rules for government or public construction sites?

    Yes. Claims involving municipal or public works projects may require additional notice or have shorter filing deadlines. Our team navigates these requirements to make sure your case complies with all legal obligations.

    Will my immigration status affect my ability to pursue a claim?

    No. New York law allows all workers, regardless of immigration status, to seek compensation for injuries sustained on a construction site. We represent workers from diverse backgrounds and treat every client with professionalism and respect.
