At approximately 2:25 p.m. on January 9, 2024, the NYPD and FDNY were called to a construction site at 3880 9th Avenue responding to reports of a crane collapse. Upon arrival at the scene, they learned that the accident involved a knuckle boom truck with a built-in crane. The boom truck was being used to move loads of plywood on the second floor of a 17-story building under construction when the boom collapsed.
It’s currently unclear whether the initial effects of a strong storm that hit the city Tuesday evening factored into this incident. Weather conditions have played a role in other noteworthy crane accidents in New York City.
City records indicate that the work site already had two open violations from an accident in December 2023 in which a worker was struck on their shoulder by an aluminum beam. An official inspected the incident and determined the accident resulted from the site’s general contractor’s failure to communicate necessary information to workers.
Crane accidents have the potential to cause catastrophic damage; all workers, employers, and site contractors must take every precaution to ensure everyone’s safety. Paul Tyson, a worker at the site, spoke to reporters, stating, “The first thing you have to wonder is if [the boom] was overloaded. Once it got to that height with that weight, the boom just came apart.”
The New York City Department of Buildings (DOB) is continuing its investigation to determine what caused the boom to fall, and hopefully prevent similar tragedies in the future. Their investigation will certainly consider Mr. Tyson’s concern and try to determine whether the designated crane capacity was exceeded causing the boom to wilt under the considerable weight of the plywood it was moving. The DOB will also be considering whether any regulations were violated to impose penalties on the violating parties.
For the injured workers and their families, there will be a difficult road ahead. Workers Compensation claims will likely be commenced to cover medical treatment and wages from lost time at work. The injured workers may contemplate a lawsuit against the entities responsible for safety at the construction site, generally the owner and general contractor.
In New York State, one important section of the Labor Law that provides a unique remedy for these injured workers is Labor Law Section 240(1), also often called ‘The Scaffold Law.’ Labor Law 240(1) to be clear is not a law exclusively for injured workers who were hurt while working on a scaffold. Instead, it is a strict liability statute in New York State that was enacted to provide “extraordinary” protection to workers injured in the most common types of construction accidents: those caused by gravity-related risks. The gravity-related risks covered by the law typically include overhead hazards like falling objects that strike a worker laboring below. It also is designed to protect workers who fall from heights as a result of not being provided appropriate and functional safety equipment.
The Workers’ Compensation Law prevents a worker from suing his or her employer or co-employee, but a lawsuit can be brought against other parties, like the site owner, general contractor, certain subcontractors, crane/boom truck owner and/or manufacturer. Aside from Labor Law Section 240(1), claims could potentially be pursued in products liability if it is found that there was a problem with the boom truck’s design or manufacturing, or in negligence if the boom truck was used improperly or was maintained improperly.

On the evening of November 20, 2023, legal professionals gathered at the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian for the New York State Trial Lawyers Association’s (NYSTLA) inaugural Fall Judicial Gala, an event held to honor newly elected members of the bench. BOM Partner David Scher, who currently serves as NYSTLA’s President, led the event’s planning committee alongside NYSTLA President-Elect Victoria Wickman.
At the event, Mr. Scher proudly introduced the two speakers of the night: Rowan Wilson, Chief Judge of the New York Court of Appeals and Joseph Zayas, Chief Administrative Judge of the New York State Unified Court System. While addressing the crowd, Mr. Scher emphasized the significance of civil justice in upholding democracy, acknowledging the hard work done by members of the bench in ensuring widespread access to the New York court system.
“Civil justice is the cornerstone of our democracy, and members of the bench do the vital work of upholding the law for all,” said Scher. “It brings me great pride to celebrate and welcome our new judges as they join the most honorable members of our judiciary in ensuring that every New Yorker has just and fair access to our vibrant court system.”
The choice of the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian as the venue for the gala was deliberate, as Chief Judge Rowan Wilson noted. He emphasized the significance of the location, highlighting the diverse perspectives on justice within different communities. Judge Wilson drew attention to the contrasting approaches of the traditional Western system of justice and the Native American system. While the former focuses on punishment and individual responsibility, the latter takes a more holistic approach, considering the injury to the community and the necessary steps to repair it. Judge Wilson hopes to utilize this more holistic approach in his work surrounding New York’s family court system.
In his speech, Chief Administrative Judge Joseph Zayas underscored the crucial role played by associations like NYSTLA in collaboration with the court system to reduce case backlogs. Judge Zayas expressed gratitude for the association’s mission to strengthen the courts, enhance access to justice, and expedite the trial process.
Andrea Krugman, a member-elect of the New York City Civil Court, reflected on the success of the evening, which is affectionately referred to as “Judge Night”, saying, “As a newly elected member of the bench, I applaud the trial lawyers for bringing many generations of lawyers and judges together. Judge Night presents a wonderful opportunity for the bench and bar to meet and helps build bridges in the courtroom.”
As a partner at Block O’Toole & Murphy, David Scher’s involvement in NYSTLA’s inaugural Fall Judicial Gala reflects our firm’s dedication to progress and collaborative approaches to the practice of law. We applaud Mr. Scher’s contributions and remain committed to upholding the values of justice, integrity, and community that were celebrated on this memorable evening.

The impact of the crash caused three of the bus’s windows to shatter completely, covering the streets in a blanket of glittering glass. Unfortunately, the glass confetti also sprayed straphangers. Eight people, including the construction worker who was operating the bucket truck and the MTA bus driver, suffered injuries as a result. The victims of the crash were taken to Bellevue and Weill Cornell Hospitals; the severity of their injuries is not currently known.
Bucket trucks, also known in the construction community as cherry pickers or lifts, are commonly used to provide elevated access to tricky areas or high places. According to a foreman, who told ABC7 that he had eyes on the scene of the crash, there were safety workers directing traffic to the far west lane of traffic on Madison Avenue so that the cherry picker could back into the construction zone—the massive site of a future Chase building. The MTA bus then attempted to move into a closer lane—at the exact moment that lift made its turn—and the two collided. Another construction worker who witnessed the crash told NBC4 that the bus specifically hit the bucket portion of the lift while the operator was inside of it. Thankfully, the lift operator was not thrown from his vehicle, due to the fact that he was safely and properly harnessed inside.
New York City bus crashes have been increasing steadily since 2019. According to NYC’s OpenData website, there were 2,789 reported crashes in 2020, which increased by 18% in 2021, and nearly 10% more in 2022. Due to the combination of state and local traffic laws as well as specific regulations which govern bus operations, bus accident lawsuits can be extraordinarily complex.
For instance, the rule of joint and several liability in New York allows plaintiffs to hold defendants—individually or collectively—accountable for the total amount of their damages. In the case of bus accidents, this means that if a bus driver is found to be even one percent at fault for an accident, passengers can collect 100% of their damages from that driver and the owner of his or her vehicle. The law protects bus drivers, too—even if they are found to be at fault in an accident. Vicarious liability theorizes that while a driver may have caused or at least been involved in an accident, his employer is also partially responsible for the accident, since the driver was on company time when the incident occurred. To complicate matters further, buses owned and operated by government entities—such as the MTA—have their own set of rules and regulations.
We at Block O’Toole & Murphy understand the complex ecosystem that is the law when it comes to bus accidents—specifically those owned and operated by government entities. Our bus accident attorneys are committed to fighting for the victims of serious physical or emotional injuries, and we’ve achieved outstanding results for those victims, including the following notable verdicts and settlements:

The post MTA Bus Collides with Construction Lift in Midtown first appeared on Block O'Toole & Murphy.]]>A White Plains technical rescue team, firefighters, and police officials cooperated to extract the worker from the crane, located high above the city. The hour-long rescue mission required two phases. First, a harness system was used to lower the man approximately 200 feet onto the roof of a building. ABC helicopter footage shows him bravely waving to supporters from midair while wearing a temporary splint on his leg. An aerial ladder then transported him to the ground, where he was transferred to an ambulance. He remains in hospital care, but his prognosis has not been reported; we hope that he heals quickly and completely in the wake of this shocking experience.
The exact cause of the accident is currently unknown. A witness told local news that the worker fell while walking on a catwalk. Firefighters describe his fracture as a “crushing injury,” which suggests that some additional factors may have been involved. Crushing injuries are caused by direct forces of compression on the body.
The construction site was located at 200 Hamilton Ave, where the crane was being used to build a large new apartment building. Due to the rapid increase in such construction projects in the area, White Plains first responders had fortunately trained for this specific scenario.
The harrowing day in White Plains underscores the danger surrounding crane accidents. This worker may have survived two of the deadliest types of construction accidents: a fall potentially coupled with a struck-by accident. Because the rescue process from a crane poses its own risks, injuries on cranes should be prevented at all costs.
Regulations for cranes and derricks outlined by the Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA) specify that all walkways on a crane should be built to a minimum width, and meet standards for slip resistance. OSHA’s guidelines for struck-by accidents also explain how to avoid workers being crushed by heavy crane equipment.
While further investigation is needed to determine whether the worker’s fall was exacerbated by the height of the crane, it is important to note that workers in these environments should always be provided with fall protection systems. A safety harness is an urgent priority for anyone performing their job at precarious heights. The general contractors, employers, and/or managers who run a construction site are legally obligated to protect workers from life-threatening falls by providing them with the right equipment and training.
Within our justice system, crane accidents can be an inherently complicated matter to litigate. Because many parties may be liable for the accident, it takes the perspective of an experienced construction accident attorney to secure maximum financial compensation for a worker who was harmed on a crane. The crane accident lawyers at Block O’Toole & Murphy have a distinguished record of navigating this process with success, determination, and compassion.

The post Injured Worker Rescued from Crane in White Plains first appeared on Block O'Toole & Murphy.]]>Nassau County police told local news that the men were working on scaffolding when they heard a loud crack; about 30 trusses which supported the roof began buckling in a chain reaction. The workers quickly tried to escape the area, but as parts of the roof fell and shifted, one worker was pinned between a piece of building material and a nearby wall.
The rescue process was long and harrowing: For more than six hours, emergency responders worked with fire officials and private crane operators to extract the worker from this dire situation. Tragically, his injuries from being crushed against the wall proved fatal; he was pronounced dead on site.
The other worker, a 24-year-old man, fortunately survived with non-life-threatening injuries.
The incident is being investigated by the Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA) as well as Nassau County Police. According to the superintendent of the Jericho Water District, the new building was intended to store carbon filters for a larger water treatment plant.
While the decedent’s name has not been released, we extend our deepest sympathies to his fiancée, Clara Reyes, along with all of his loved ones. Reyes arrived at the scene on Thursday to discover an unfathomable nightmare—at age 49, her partner was robbed of his entire future. She told reporters he had always been a hard worker. They lived in Roosevelt, an area in Nassau to the southwest of Syosset.
Wall and roof collapses threaten the lives of construction workers on a regular basis. As the accident in Woodbury proves, the stakes could not be higher: Better safety measures would have likely spared the life of this worker.
When a roof collapses, any worker in the vicinity faces struck-by hazards. These types of accidents, which include instances of workers being pinned by falling objects, are a leading cause of death in the construction industry.
In many cases reported by OSHA, roof collapses were linked to various forms of negligence. Whenever people are tasked with working on a roof, or on the scaffolding around it, the parties responsible for construction site safety are required to ensure that the roof is stable and secure. This includes thorough inspection by trained personnel, and frequent monitoring for signs of damage caused by weather. The structure itself should be erected with sound engineering, building materials, and careful oversight of all procedures.
Although no attorney can undo the tragedy of a wrongful death, proper legal representation can help families recover financial compensation after such an event. The wrongful death lawyers at Block O’Toole & Murphy are proud to provide compassion, expertise, and unmatched results in these circumstances.

The post Tragic Death of Worker Caused by Roof Collapse in Woodbury first appeared on Block O'Toole & Murphy.]]>The crane, holding a construction worker, was stationed at 550 10th Avenue, a high rise building that’s intended to be a 54-story, mixed-use edifice, between West 41st and 42nd Streets—mere blocks from historic Times Square. Officials reported to both the New York Post and ABC 7 that the crane operator attempted unsuccessfully to extinguish the fire on his own and was, thankfully, able to evacuate the scene safely.
As NYPD and FDNY were on route to extinguish the fire, the boom of the crane (a long, fixed or hydraulic arm used to lift heavy objects, like palettes of bricks or constructed walls) collapsed, having been eroded by the flames, sending a 16-ton load of concrete crashing to the streets below, according to NBC New York. Sixteen tons, or about 32,000 pounds, is the equivalent of roughly thirty-two grand pianos in weight. More frightening still, part of the collapsing crane struck the building across the street before falling to the ground below, sending debris flying into the air. More than 200 firefighters responded to the scene where they were stationed at a nearby building, attacking the fire with water from below the crane and above it. FDNY Deputy Commissioner Joseph Pfeifer reported the fire “nearly extinguished” just before 9 A.M., but six people—two of which are members of the FDNY—had already sustained injuries.
ABC 7 reports that there is one crane operator and at least 50 people working near the crane on a typical day, according to authorities. Considering the circumstances, just six injury victims is nothing short of a miracle. Mayor Eric Adams agrees that the accident “could have been much worse,” given the high traffic of the area in the form of buses, cars, and pedestrians. He and a host of city officials have vowed a full investigation. As of today, 10th Avenue remains closed, and several of the surrounding buildings have been evacuated in precaution against additional collapse.
Given the purpose of cranes—to lift and hold heavy objects and machinery, often high in the air—the risk of crane-related accidents is frightening. In their most recent analysis on crane accidents, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that an average of 44 people die in crane-related accidents in the U.S. each year. Crane accidents occur equally at construction sites (24%) and factories or plants (24%), with nearly 70% of crane accident fatalities occurring in the specialty trade, heavy and civil engineering, and construction industries. Additionally, just over half of all fatal crane injuries involved the worker being struck by an object or equipment.
Crane accident cases can be complex and overwhelming, as proving who is legally responsible, and to what extent, is a challenging job.

The post Crane Collapses and Catches Fire in Hell’s Kitchen first appeared on Block O'Toole & Murphy.]]>At least three people received treatment for injuries on site, while another seven were transported to local hospitals, according to FDNY (New York City Fire Department) officials. Gratefully, each person is expected to survive. We wish them strength on the road to recovery.
The minivan had a TLC (Taxi & Limousine Commission) license plate, and was reportedly driven by a man who lived in the area. Approximately five blocks away from the location of the crash, he lost control of the vehicle. He had been regularly using this minivan to transport senior citizens and people with disabilities, but fortunately, no passengers were inside his vehicle when the crash occurred. As his family and friends stated, he had a medical condition linked to a history of seizures; it is unknown if a seizure led to the accident on Sunday.
New York State has very specific laws when it comes to crashes after a medical emergency. An individual involved with a crash who is seeking to use a medical emergency as a liability defense must prove that the medical emergency was sudden and unexpected. An experienced attorney should investigate the medical history of the driver. The seasoned lawyer should be focusing on whether the driver has a medical condition that caused the crash and whether the driver was on notice about the medical condition. If the defendant is unable to prove that the medical condition was unanticipated and that the crash was caused by the condition, then the victim will prevail. For example, if a driver is a diabetic and knows that not carefully monitoring his insulin levels can lead to a diabetic episode. If that driver then has a diabetic episode, he or she will be hard-pressed to maintain that defense.
Bus accidents are a significant cause for concern in New York. Even when another vehicle causes the crash, as in the accident on Sunday, many innocent people are at risk of injury, including bus passengers, pedestrians, and drivers of nearby vehicles. While MTA buses have a weight advantage when it comes to many collisions, no passenger can be prepared for the force of a high-speed impact with another vehicle. In 2021, The National Safety Council found that rear-end accidents in particular accounted for nearly 18% of deaths caused by motor vehicle crashes.
If the driver of the minivan had a TLC license, and the accident was caused by a medical condition such as a seizure, it is notable that anyone seeking a TLC driver license must obtain medical approval from a physician.
Anyone involved in a multiple-vehicle collision may find that on top of their physical injuries, navigating the legal process is a major challenge. Determining liability can be a complex matter, and it requires the perspective of an experienced attorney. The lawyers at Block O’Toole & Murphy have a distinguished track record of securing maximum financial compensation for people harmed in such accidents.

The post Van Collides with Bus in Bronx, Injuring 10 People first appeared on Block O'Toole & Murphy.]]>FDNY Battalion Chief John Sarrocco dispatched rescue units, EMS Special Operations Medics, and enlisted the help of ConEdison to free the victim in about 45 minutes. “We supported the trench with some wood cribbing, tied the victim off with a harness from a high-point anchor, and we started to work on extricating him from the hole,” he said at a press conference. “We also sent a rescue medic into the trench to offer critical care that the victim needed.” ConEdison utilized its special vacuum truck on the scene, which helped to remove the tightly-packed debris, allowing the FDNY to free the victim from the trench quickly—a difficult task considering the delicate circumstances. As Burkett noted in his live broadcast, the rescue team had to exercise extreme caution so as not to injure the victim further.
Unfortunately, construction site accidents happen frequently—especially in a robust metropolis like New York—but trench accidents and collapses, specifically, are less common. When trench accidents do occur, they can be deadly. A cubic yard of soil can weigh as much as a small car, so workers caught in a trench collapse face a high risk of crush injuries, asphyxiation, or even death. Having been caught under thousands of pounds of soil, the Flushing Avenue trench victim is lucky to be alive. Construction employers are responsible for inspecting trench sites daily and implementing the appropriate safety measures to prevent devastating on-the-job injuries. Currently, the New York City DOB has issued a partial stop work order at the Flushing Avenue site as a result of the collapse, according to ABC7. Additionally, the DOB issued summonses to the general contractor for: supported pipe scaffolding not maintained per code, failure to obtain an electrical permit for temporary electrical work, and failure to notify for Earthwork operation. And, in addition to the general contractor, the DOB issued a summons to the plumbing sub contractor “for failure to provide protection for the excavation operation,” as reported by ABC7.
We at Block O’Toole & Murphy wish the victim a speedy recovery and send well wishes to him and his family. We applaud the fast and creative rescue methods of the FDNY and ConEdison, which likely saved the victim’s life.

The post Williamsburg Worker Trapped in Trench first appeared on Block O'Toole & Murphy.]]>Falling from scaffolding is just one of the many dangerous occurrences that can befall a construction worker. In fact, in its annual 2022 Construction Safety Report, the New York City Department of Buildings found that worker injuries on building construction work sites increased for the second straight year—up 9.7% compared to 2021. And, because scaffolding is incredibly versatile and, often, built to be in use for a temporary period of time, its assemblage can be rushed, making it even more dangerous for the workers—like the Long Beach fall victim—who use it.
In the world of construction, the ramifications of falls intensify when workers are not provided adequate fall protection by their employers. Guardrails are the most common base requirement of a construction site, and certain types of scaffolds require additional, more specific fall protections like yo-yos, or body harnesses, snap hooks, lifelines, and anchorage points. Employers are not only required to provide, for example, yo-yos—they’re also required to ensure that equipment fits all workers on the job, and that the equipment is located on the job site so that their workers have access. Otherwise, a lack of equipment availability can be cited, and contractors or owners could be liable for a worker’s injuries.
The Scaffold Law, or New York Labor Law 240(1), protects workers from a wide range of gravity-related hazards. The Scaffold Law—on which Block O’Toole & Murphy attorneys are expert—is unique to New York and critical to providing a safe workplace to our construction workers. It’s because of this law that fall victims, like the man from Long Beach, can sue third-parties who do not provide adequate fall protection. In a similar recent case, tried by BOM Partners S. Joseph Donahue and Jeffrey A. Block, the Kings County Supreme Court awarded a 53 year-old carpenter $5,000,000 after he fell from scaffolding and sustained multiple injuries. In another case, Partners Jeffrey Block and Dan O’Toole successfully ensured a $5,030,572 recovery for a construction worker who was injured when the scaffolding on his work site tipped over.
Other notable results we have obtained for victims of scaffolding accidents include:
We at Block O’Toole & Murphy wish the victim a swift recovery from his injuries, and we applaud the response from our friends at the Long Beach Police and Fire departments who ensured the victim’s safe and quick transport to Mount Sinai South Nassau.

The post Long Beach, NY, Worker Falls 12 Feet From Scaffolding first appeared on Block O'Toole & Murphy.]]>On the morning of Thursday, July 13, two workers at a construction site in Orchard Beach were seriously injured by a large piece of concrete that fell onto them after a ceiling collapsed. Local reports state that the accident took place around 11 a.m. According to New York City Fire Department (FDNY) chief Kenneth Scanlon, fire officials were called to the scene at Orchard Beach Pavilion, located in the Bronx’s Pelham Bay Park. They found the workers trapped underneath the concrete slab, which measured approximately 15 feet by 20 feet. Due to the severity of this event, 15 FDNY units responded to the call.
Patch reports that the collapse occurred on the top floor of a building that was under construction. The workers were sent to NYC Health + Hospitals/Jacobi for treatment, where they are said to be in “serious but stable condition.” We wish them a complete recovery following this harrowing experience.
It remains unknown what exactly triggered the collapse; officials from the New York City Department of Buildings (DOB) are investigating alongside the NYC Economic Development Corporation (NYCEDC), a nonprofit which was involved in the construction project. The NYCEDC plans to release a full incident report after gathering information from the construction manager, referred to as Gilbane.
Injuries from falling objects are all too common in the construction industry. In fact, as a type of struck-by accident, ceiling collapses are a part of the “Fatal Four”—the most lethal kinds of accidents that construction workers face year after year. It is extremely fortunate that the two Bronx workers were reportedly wearing safety equipment (helmets) at the time of the collapse. While their injuries are deeply tragic, they could have easily lost their lives.
When a ceiling collapses, the forces involved can be staggering. On average, concrete weighs about 150 lbs per cubic foot; consequently, the concrete piece that came crashing down on these workers could have weighed hundreds of pounds or more. The grave risks of wall and roof collapses at job sites should always be mitigated with attention to structural support for ceilings, including the use of proper building materials. Under the law, safe design of construction sites is the responsibility of the building owners, general contractors, and employers who manage them.
For anyone who has been injured by a ceiling collapse, legal guidance can help secure the financial compensation which they deserve, and often need, to move on. The wall and roof collapse lawyers at Block O’Toole & Murphy have spent decades securing justice for injured construction workers, and our record of success is unmatched.
