Long Island City Workplace Accident Lawyer

Workplace accidents can happen anywhere, even in areas that are generally quite safe. Common causes of workplace accidents include:

• Violation of OSHA safety regulations
• Defective equipment provided to employees
• Improper training
• Slip and falls
• Lack of adequate supervision
• Lack of adequate safety equipment and training
• Failure to inspect and maintain a safe workplace
• Lack of communication

Workplace accidents are unfortunately common in New York City. Employers and managers often fail to exercise reasonable care in keeping their premises safe, and serious injuries through slip and falls and trip and falls often result.  When an employee is injured as a result of the negligence in the workplace, they may be able to seek compensation. For this reason, it is important to discuss your accident with a personal injury attorney, as you may need your medical bills paid, or compensation for lost wages. 

Injuries caused by accidents in the workplace can be severe, and are often devastating to those who fall victim to someone else's negligence. Common injuries caused by workplace accidents include:

• Traumatic brain injuries
• Bone fractures
• Spinal cord injuries
• Shoulder and neck injuries 
• Cuts and abrasions
• Soft tissue injuries
