The Platta Law Firm, PLLC is a premier personal injury law firm located in New York City . Our firm fights for those who suffer catastrophic personal injuries due to the negligent or wrongful acts of others. We vigorously advocate for our clients, including the injured worker, and proudly fight to obtain the compensation and financial recovery they and their loved ones deserve.
These cases often include falling pipes and other falling objects. Since our firm’s founding over a decade ago, The Platta Law Firm, PLLC has made protecting the rights of those unjustly injured by the negligence of others the focus of our law practice. Not only have we recovered millions for our clients, we have made history doing so.
When deciding on a personal injury law firm, you won’t find many that have changed the course of the law in New York for construction workers. The Platta Law Firm, PLLC did just that. In 2011, our firm litigated a case called Wilinski v. 334 E. 92nd Hous. Dev. Fund. Corp., before the state’s highest court, which resulted in a significant change in the law and added further protections to workers. This case also involved a worker who was injured by a falling object, specifically a falling pipe.
Our commitment in the Wilinski case not only helped our client, but marked a major victory for construction workers all over the state. Because of the expansion of the law we achieved in Wilinski, construction workers who in the past would have been denied the compensation for their injuries are now able to get the money they need to pay their medical bills and support their families.
We bring this same kind of commitment and expertise to all of our cases. While we have changed the law concerning falling pipes and other falling objects, we represent all kinds of injured people. Our personal injury law firm dedicates itself construction accidents (Labor Law), motor vehicle accidents, premises accidents, and workers’ compensation claims.
We represent clients in all of the boroughs of New York City, as well as Long Island, Westchester County and Rockland County. Our attorneys are a select team of experienced litigators with the skills and tenacity needed to fight for our clients and maximize the value of their case. We use this expertise to fight for our clients in some of the area’s biggest cases, including injured plaintiffs who sustain traumatic brain injuries, joint replacement surgeries, spine injuries, and quadriplegia.
We changed the game when it comes to falling pipes and other falling objections. Our team’s proven and innovative litigation strategy results in high verdicts and settlements for our clients.
