Even though Staten Island is the most suburban of the five New York City boroughs, it is easily accessible to the rest of New York via the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge and the Staten Island Ferry. Three bridges also connect Staten Island to New Jersey. This makes Staten Island a popular location for people looking for an accessible home that is more affordable than the those in the other boroughs. Staten Island has an active arts scene, numerous exceptional museums and gardens, and lovely historic homes. Almost a half million people live on Staten Island and thousands more cross the island every day on their way to and from Brooklyn, Manhattan and New Jersey.
Like all of New York City, Staten Island is a highly developed, highly populated area, and accidents of all kinds are likely to happen. Many of these accidents will be at the workplace. If you or a loved one suffers injuries on the job and another party is to blame, you deserve to be compensated for your injuries and expenses.
Caregivers are particularly vulnerable to on-the-job injuries. A caregiver can be injured on the job as a result of car accidents, sidewalk and premises falls, and any accident resulting from unsafe conditions in stores, apartment buildings and homes, supermarkets and any other location where negligent conditions exist. Caregivers’ recovery is not limited to workman’s compensation. If you or a loved one has been injured in the course of working as a caregiver, an experienced attorney can help you win additional compensation.
