Falling objects are a serious hazard on construction sites and in busy work areas throughout New York. Tools, materials, debris, and unsecured loads can cause severe injuries when they fall from scaffolds, cranes, roofs, ladders, or elevated platforms. Edward R. Young & Associates represents injured workers and pedestrians throughout Brooklyn, the Bronx, West Babylon, and surrounding New York communities.
Falling object claims often depend on how the object fell, who controlled the work area, whether proper safety measures were in place, and whether owners, contractors, subcontractors, or equipment companies failed to protect workers and others nearby.
