Ladder Accident Attorney New York

Construction Accident Lawyer New Paltz

Failed Scaffolds and Ladders Cause Injuries From Falls

The state of New York recognizes the serious hazards faced by workers whose jobs require them to use scaffolds and ladders to reach high places. In most work accidents, workers' compensation covers the employer's obligation to an injured employee. But accidents from falls can place an additional burden on the owner of a project.

Upon interviewing Jonathan Katz, I decided to retain him because I was impressed with his approach to divorce: he advocated communication, conflict reduction, and efficiency, toward reducing the stress and monetary expense already inherent to any legal action.

When my case took unexpected turns, Jonathan was agile and effective in his response, even when the straightforward divorce turned into an international custody battle that went to federal court. Responsive at every turn, efficient, and wise in his counsel, Mr. Katz's legal services gave me real value for my investment.

Being a single mom, I had enough stress in my life. I had no idea how to go about protecting my self. My daughters were my priority. Jon walked me through the process. He turned a difficult time into a workable solution.

Jon's integrity towards his clients is what makes him a standout attorney. He makes it a priority to know whats important to you. You're not just a number. He is up front with you right from the start. He will not string you along just for his financial benefit. He is only willing to settle the case if thats truly what you want. Anytime I called him I received a call back from him that day. Not someone else in the office. He is an attorney that has a passion for whats important to his clients.
