Understanding New York and New Jersey Construction Accident Spinal Cord Injuries

Approximately 59% of spinal cord injuries occur because of motor vehicle accidents or falls. That statistic is significant for the general population and chilling for construction workers and their families. If you are a construction worker who has suffered a spinal cord injury while on the job, then you are not alone. Many others have suffered similar injuries and many have recovered damages that have been important to their futures. Therefore, it is important for you to talk to a New York construction accident lawyer about your rights as soon as possible after your injury.

How Construction Spinal Cord Injuries Occur

Most construction spinal cord injuries occur because of construction motor vehicle accidents or falls from heights. Motor vehicle accidents can occur when machinery such as excavators, front loaders, bulldozers and trucks are used on the construction site and collide, or when a vehicle from outside of the construction site crashes into a worker. Fall accidents typically occur when a construction worker falls from a ladder, platform, or other elevated height.

Any construction accident or fall victim should seek prompt medical attention. While a doctor cannot undo the damage that has been done, a doctor can prevent further damage from occurring because of delayed treatment.

Why it is Important to Call a New York Construction Attorney After a Spinal Cord Injury

There is currently no cure for spinal cord injuries, but there is hope for spinal cord injury victims. Treatment and rehabilitation therapies are expensive, and the cost comes when many construction workers are unable to work due to their injuries.
