- $5.05 million dollar settlement before trial for the family of a painter who was killed while helping to rebuild the World Trade Center site after the events of 9/11. We successfully argued that the defendants were negligent under New York State Labor Law because they allowed our client to work alone without the benefit of a coworker—and that working alone in a man lift was an unsafe work practice.
- A Smiley Law Bronx construction accident injury attorney won a $1.6 million verdict for our client, an elevator operator who became disabled when the elevator he was riding in fell 10 stories to the basement. A Bronx jury assessed the award against the maintenance company, which was charged with over-lubricating the cables that caused the elevator to lose traction.
- Smiley Law and our team of Bronx construction accident injury attorneys won $650,000 for a 50-year-old laborer who suffered severe shoulder and internal injuries when he was struck by a beam that was thrown over the side of a building he was working on. The case was based on a violation of a Labor Law statute requiring the use of chutes for removal of construction materials.
