Construction AccidentsContractors and owners are required by New York law to keep worksites safe. When workers are hurt, the fault almost always sits with unsafe practices, missing equipment, or supervisory failures.
Construction AccidentsNew York’s Labor Law exists because construction is one of the most dangerous industries. Evan explains how §240 and §241 protect workers — and why enforcement matters.
LeadershipThe civil justice system exists to give ordinary people a voice against powerful interests. Evan shares why he took on the presidency of the New York State Trial Lawyers Association.
Trial PracticeA jury verdict does more than compensate a single injured person — it sets a standard for what the community will tolerate. Evan explains how jury trials keep negligent actors accountable.
Auto AccidentsDistracted driving has changed how auto cases are investigated. Evan walks through what makes a driver negligent under New York law and how pedestrians and passengers are protected.
Construction AccidentsFalls from ladders, scaffolds and elevated worksites remain the leading cause of serious construction injuries in New York. Labor Law §240 places absolute liability on owners and contractors for these gravity-related risks.
Medical MalpracticeMedical malpractice is more than a bad outcome — it’s a departure from the accepted standard of care. Evan explains what has to be proven, how misdiagnosis cases work, and why expert testimony is essential.
Nursing Home NeglectUnderstaffing, falls, pressure sores, and elder abuse are all signs of nursing home neglect. Evan also breaks down mandatory arbitration clauses buried in admission paperwork — and how families can push back.
Construction AccidentsImmigration status does not change New York Labor Law. Undocumented workers injured on a jobsite have the same right to full recovery — including lost earnings — as any other worker. All consultations are confidential.
Construction AccidentsData consistently shows that Hispanic and Black construction workers are injured and killed at disproportionate rates. Evan discusses why — and how the law protects every worker regardless of language, background, or immigration status.
Product LiabilityWhen a product is defectively designed, manufactured, or marketed without proper warnings, the manufacturer can be held liable for the harm it causes. Evan explains how these cases are built.
Construction AccidentsOSHA regulations, union safety standards, and contractor site rules layer together to protect workers. Violations of any of these can be strong evidence of negligence in a construction injury case.
Trial PracticeAccess to a jury of your peers is a constitutional right. Evan explains how trial lawyers use that right to hold insurance companies and negligent corporations accountable.
