Long Island Construction Accident Lawyers Fighting for Injured Workers
Long Island—spanning Nassau and Suffolk Counties from the Queens border to Montauk—experiences continuous and diverse construction activity that drives the region's growth and economy. Construction workers building Long Island's communities face serious risks across varied environments: residential developments throughout Nassau's suburban neighborhoods, commercial projects in business districts from Mineola to Riverhead, luxury construction in the Hamptons, coastal storm damage reconstruction, and extensive infrastructure improvements along the Long Island Expressway and parkway systems. When safety measures fail and workers are injured, New York Labor Law provides powerful legal protections that go far beyond standard workers' compensation.
