Types of Injuries and Accidents Our White Plains, NY Personal Injury Lawyers Can Help You With
An accident is something that is generally avoidable. There are many types of accidents that can occur on a daily basis. Some accidents involve car collisions, being hurt on a job site, or medical malpractice. Motor vehicle accidents, trip-and-falls, and construction site accidents are some of the most common cases involving personal injuries.
Construction Site Accidents
Construction sites or building sites can be very dangerous places because of:
- Hazards from falling material
- Scaffolding
- Power tools
- Faulty lifts and hoists
- Collapsing trenches and foundations
- Safety equipment not used
- People tripping and falling
- Lack of proper supervision
Injuries suffered at construction sites can be severe and life-altering. Special laws are in place in New York State to protect the health and safety of construction workers. If you, or someone you know, has been injured at a construction site, it is important that you understand your rights to any benefits and compensation owed to you under the law. You may be able to make claims against parties other than your employer – including a general contractor or subcontractor.
Car Accidents
Car accidents happen because of a collision with another car, truck, bicycle, or pedestrian. Speeding, failing to pay attention, or an intoxicated driver can cause car accidents as well. Car accidents can cause injuries that change your life – and the life of your family. The causes of these mishaps that result in injuries often allow for you to get financial compensation for your injuries
Motorcycle Accidents
Purchases of motorcycles are on the rise, and so are motorcycle accidents, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Those who survive motorcycle collisions may suffer permanent incapacitation from a range of injuries, including head injuries, loss of limbs, and brain and spinal cord injuries. These accidents can be traumatic both physically and emotionally. Nationwide, motorcycle accidents resulting in wrongful death account for more than 10 percent of all traffic fatalities. Others who are injured may face long hospital stays and months of medical treatment.
Truck Accidents
A truck – including an 18-wheeler or a pick-up or box truck – are large vehicles that often cause significant damage when involved in a collision. An accident involving a truck often results in fatalities and very serious injuries. Victims of truck accidents should seek legal help from our accident attorneys at Marvin A. Cooper, P.C. as soon as possible.

An Introduction to the Basics of No-Fault Insurance in New York
All motor vehicle accident victims are entitled to protection under the No-Fault Law in New York State. Many people are confused about the term “no-fault” insurance – it is a commonly misunderstood term. “No Fault” means – no matter who is at fault for a collision involving an automobile in New York State, the insurance company of the car that you are in (or, if a pedestrian or bicyclist, the car that struck you) must pay for all of your medical bills (up to – usually – $50,000.00) resulting from the collision.
No-fault insurance does not mean that the insurance company lets the driver who was at fault “off the hook” for the cause of an accident. “No Fault” is a type of car insurance in which an insurance provider covers damages incurred to its customer in an accident, regardless of who’s at fault. It is intended to lower the cost of auto insurance by taking small claims out of the courts. For example, if you were injured in a car collision, you would be able to access any medical benefits offered under your policy immediately from your company, even if you were to blame for the accident. You can get the help you need right away, instead of having to wait for the insurance companies to decide who was at fault before paying out any benefits.
