Crane accidents unfortunately happen all too frequently with the volume of construction that is taking place within the City of New York. When crane accidents do happen they are very serious causing devastating personal injuries and property damage.

When this happens and you or someone you love is involved in such an accident you need a lawyer with the experience to handle it properly and obtain the compensation you are entitled to.

The lawyers at Jaroslawicz & Jaros have handled these types of case for over forty (40) years with outstanding results. When a crane collapses many potential defendants need to be identified, including the owner of the property, the owners and operators of the crane, the manufacturers of the crane, the companies that erected and inspected the crane, as well as the other inspectors, safety companies, general contractors and sub-contractors that were involved in the project and may have some responsibility for the accident.

The reports and investigations from OSHA and other governmental agencies that investigate such accidents also need to be obtained.

The lawyers at Jaroslawicz & Jaros have been involved in the two recent crane collapses on 51st and 91st streets in Manhattan. They have also been involved in most of the Con Edison gas explosion cases as well as building collapses that have occurred in the City of New York in the past forty (40) years.

The lawyers at Jaroslawicz & Jaros have over forty (40) years of experience in successfully representing victims of crane and construction accidents.

In many cases, a lawsuit must be filed before an applicable expiration date, known as a statute of limitations. Also, it is important to hire a lawyer as soon as possible before possibly vital evidence is destroyed or lost. So make sure that you do not waive your right to possible compensation by calling an experienced lawyer as soon as possible after the accident and do not wait.

If you or a loved one were injured in a crane or construction related accident and are in need of legal assistance, call Jaroslawicz & Jaros at , or toll free in New York 800-269-2780, or submit an online questionnaire. The initial consultation is free of charge, and if we agree to handle your case, we will work on a contingency fee basis, which means we get paid for our services only if there is a monetary recovery of funds. In many cases, a lawsuit must be filed before an applicable expiration date, known as a statute of limitations. Please call to ensure that you do not waive your right to compensation.
