Construction Accident Liability

RUSSO & GOULD LLP has a core of attorneys who have developed special expertise in the defense of construction accident cases in the State of New York on behalf of owners, contractors, subcontractors, construction managers and safety consultants. This expertise includes defending cases brought under New York State Labor Law Sections 240, 241(6) and 200, as well as the enforcement of contractual indemnity claims and related insurance coverage.
