Trusted Bronx Construction Accident Attorneys

If you or a loved one has been injured in a construction accident or work-related incident in the Bronx—whether a fall from scaffolding in Fordham, a crane accident in Hunts Point, electrocution along the Grand Concourse, or any other serious job site injury—the experienced Labor Law attorneys at Licatesi Law Group are here to help.

Construction work in the Bronx is inherently dangerous. From new development projects to renovation of the borough's many older buildings, from infrastructure work on the Cross Bronx Expressway to residential construction in Riverdale, workers face daily risks of falls, electrocution, struck-by accidents, and other life-threatening hazards.

When property owners, general contractors, and construction companies cut corners on safety to save time or money, workers pay the price with devastating injuries—or worse. New York's Labor Law provides powerful protections for injured construction workers, including strict liability under the "Scaffold Law" (Labor Law §240) that holds property owners and contractors automatically responsible for gravity-related accidents.

With over 40 years of experience and more than $100 million recovered for clients, Licatesi Law Group has the knowledge, resources, and track record to handle even the most complex Bronx construction accident cases. We fight to maximize both your workers' compensation benefits and your personal injury recovery, ensuring you receive every dollar you deserve.

Common Types of Bronx Construction Accidents

Bronx construction sites present numerous hazards that can result in serious injuries or death:

  • Falls from Heights: Scaffolding collapses, ladder accidents, falls from roofs, unprotected edges, and elevator shaft falls
  • Struck-By Accidents: Falling tools or materials, crane accidents, construction vehicle collisions, and falling debris
  • Electrocution: Contact with power lines, defective tools, inadequate lockout/tagout, and underground utility strikes
  • Trench Collapses: Cave-ins, inadequate shoring, workers buried alive, and excavation equipment accidents
  • Caught-In/Between: Crushed by machinery, pinned by equipment, caught in collapsing structures
  • Burns and Explosions: Welding accidents, gas line strikes, chemical burns, and electrical burns

Many of these accidents are preventable and result from violations of OSHA safety regulations and New York Labor Law requirements. When negligence causes your injury, Licatesi Law Group holds all responsible parties accountable.
