Construction Worker Awarded over $2,000,000 in Settlement After Construction Accident

Accidents can happen in the most unexpected places—even on job sites that should be properly secured. S.R., a man living in New York, found himself in a life-changing situation when he slipped and fell at a construction site. The area was unsafe, and what should have been a routine workday turned into a serious accident that left him with multiple injuries requiring several surgeries. The aftermath was overwhelming: medical treatments, pain, and uncertainty about how he would recover physically and financially.

Unsure of what to do next, S.R. turned to the experienced attorneys at Hill & Moin LLP for help. From the very beginning, he felt he was in capable hands. The firm’s handling attorney, David Zwerin, took the time to carefully listen to his story, explain his legal options, and guide him through each stage of the process. S.R. later shared that David’s professionalism, compassion, and dedication gave him confidence during one of the most difficult times of his life.

Throughout the case, the family expressed that they received unwavering support from the firm’s paralegals, who worked tirelessly to ensure that his needs were met. Because the family needed to speak in Russian, he was able to discuss his case comfortably with Hill & Moin’s multilingual staff. Every legal step—from filing the claim to negotiating with insurance companies—was clearly explained to him. This personalized attention helped S.R. feel secure knowing that his case was being handled with care and transparency.

Looking back, S.R. is deeply grateful for the dedication and compassion shown by David and the firm’s paralegals. He describes the experience as one that far exceeded his expectations, noting that he always felt informed and supported. “David was great, and the paralegals were there for me every step of the way,” he shared.

Thanks to the successful resolution of his case, S.R. can now focus on his continued recovery and rebuilding his life after the accident. With the settlement, he plans to purchase a home—a goal that once seemed impossible in the aftermath of his injury. This new chapter represents stability, comfort, and a well-deserved fresh start after a long and difficult journey.
