New York City Scaffolding Accident Lawyers
Scaffolding is a type of support structure most often used at construction sites to provide temporary access to the higher areas of buildings and other large structures. Scaffolding is almost always a modular system and is most commonly made out of metal, although occasionally other materials such as wood are used. Although most scaffolding structures are perfectly safe, if they are improperly manufactured, set up, or maintained, they can present a distinct danger both to construction workers and bystanders.
