Compensation for Window Washer Accident Victims
Have you or someone you care about been involved in an accident while working as a window washer? You may be entitled to compensation, and the law firm of Padilla & Associates can help you get it. We have spent more than a decade standing up for the rights of accident victims, and we have a record of multimillion dollar results to prove it.
Victims May Be Entitled to More Than Just Workers' Compensation
People who suffer on-the-job accidents while working as window washers often believe that their only option is to apply for workers' compensation benefits. This is not always the case. Victims who have suffered a severe injury may also be able to file a personal injury claim against a negligent party. Family members of workers who lost their lives in falls from scaffolds while washing windows may be able to file a wrongful death claim. An attorney from our law firm can help you find out what your options are and help you obtain the compensation you deserve.
Window Washing Accidents and the Law
Window washers have a very dangerous job. New York City has laws in place to protect these workers as they hang countless stories above the streets of New York City, supported only by scaffolds, ropes, pulleys and other "safety" devices.
New York Labor Laws 202 and 240 require that employers create an environment that is absolutely safe for workers. When these laws are not heeded, accidents happen. That's when we step in. We take action against negligent employers, as well as manufacturers of defective equipment that may have caused the accident. We work hard to get compensation for victims of these serious accidents.
Claims Handled on a Contingency Basis
We handle all personal injury cases on a contingency basis. This means that you only pay attorney fees if we are successful in getting you compensation.
