The Law Offices of Krause & Glassmith, LLP recently secured a massive $3.5 million in compensation for a client injured in a construction site accident.
The client, a construction worker, was injured while working on the 22nd floor of a well-known high-rise hotel project in Manhattan’s East Side, covering a total area of 77,858 square feet.
Krause & Glassmith filed suit against the property owner and general contractor, arguing that they failed to comply with OSHA regulations and the NYC Department of Buildings’ safety protocols. The failure to timely remove construction debris and keep walkways clear led to an accumulation of dangerous materials. The worker had tripped and severely cut his wrist on a piece of exposed metal debris that had not been properly cleared.
Following the injury, the client underwent multiple surgeries on his hand and wrist and was ultimately informed by doctors that he could no longer return to construction work. The injuries were a direct result of the owner and contractor’s failure to adhere to required safety standards. The legal team at Krause & Glassmith took swift and decisive legal action against the large corporate defendants and their attorneys.

Krause & Glassmith is determined to hold companies accountable for cutting corners at the expense of workers’ safety.
Although the defendants mounted a strong defense, on the eve of trial, Krause & Glassmith’s persistent and strategic preparation led to a successful $3.5 million settlement for their client.
Attorney Krause emphasized that client care is always their top priority, and that this focus is what has earned the firm such a strong reputation in the Chinese community.
