Over
the course of years, our team
has dealt with a wide variety of cases involving construction
injury. We know the way the law works, and we take the field with
the clear intention to win. When faced with the loss of large
sums of money, you can expect insurance companies and organizations
to fight back. Steinbrecher & Associates has a near perfect
record of success in fighting
for our clients and winning outstanding results. Justice is your
right, and it is what we serve.
Here
are two recent cases that underscore our competence in the area
of construction injury; Bonilla v. ICM Resources and Mizrahi
v. Masonry Concepts, Inc.
In
the first case, Bonilla v. ICM Resources
our client, Jose Bonilla, was carrying two buckets of hot asphalt,
doing roofing work at a large apartment building. He stepped in
previously applied hot asphalt, which caused his foot to stick.
The two buckets of asphalt spilled on him, causing severe burn
injuries. Because his employer, the roofing contractor, had neither
worker's compensation insurance not a contractor's license, he
became an automatic employee of the management company of the
building. They denied he was their employee and refused to pay
the work comp benefits. Ed
Steinbrecher took the case to trial where
the jury awarded our client $3,300,000.
In
the second case, Mizrahi v. Masonry Concepts,
Inc. Bill Mizrahi was working on a construction site as a
carpenter. A masonry crew was working above on scaffolding cutting
cement blocks. Suddenly, a piece of block broke off and shot out
of the saw. The block fell from the scaffolding forty feet striking
Bill's hardhat. Inadequate supervision of the masonry crew and
failure to use safety devices, such as a net, caused this accident.
Our client suffered minor traumatic brain injury as a result of
the blow to his head. The case was settled for $610,000.
We
