Melville NYS Labor Law & Construction Defect

Hurwitz Fine attorneys regularly represent defendants in bodily injury claims brought under New York Labor Law §§ 200, 240(1), and 241(6). We handle all aspects of construction site accident investigations and defenses with a strategic, results-driven approach.

Our team is dedicated to defending contractors, property owners, and their agents in actions brought under New York Labor Law. With deep knowledge of the law and a tireless commitment to advocacy, we have consistently achieved favorable outcomes for our clients and their insurers. Our statewide team begins each case with a thorough investigation and works collaboratively with clients to uncover critical evidence that may significantly impact the case outcome.

In addition to litigation defense, we assist owners, contractors, and their agents in drafting contracts that incorporate effective risk transfer strategies, including provisions for Additional Insured status, Contractual Indemnity, and both Common Law Indemnity and Contribution.

Hurwitz Fine attorneys are also experienced in both the prosecution and defense of contractual and common law indemnity claims. We routinely handle construction accident cases involving original construction, renovations, or allegations of negligent design, construction, or maintenance of structures such as plazas, buildings, parking lots, and apartment complexes. Our team is well-versed in the procedures necessary to investigate, initiate, and prosecute indemnity and third-party actions.
