Our Construction And Labor Law Team

The Tarantino Law Firm, LLP, has experience representing property owners, management companies, industry owners, construction management teams, municipalities, subcontractors and prime-contractors at all stages of premises liability and construction accident litigation and dispute resolution.

As these claims become increasingly burdensome on the contractors and insurance carriers that cover them, The Tarantino Law Firm, LLP, seeks to emphasize cost containment and effective communication with clients to develop client-focused litigation strategies. Both insurers and their insureds can rely on our Buffalo, New York, firm’s affordable excellence to defend against a wide variety of cases, including construction injury, slip and falls and other property matters.

Insurance Coverage Litigation

Our attorneys are also experienced in enforcing indemnification and insurance provisions of construction agreements to transfer liability from owners, general contractors and construction managers to the parties and employers responsible for the conditions and acts giving rise to these injury claims. Additionally, The Tarantino Law Firm, LLP, represents employers as third-party defendants in construction-related claims.

Zealous Representation In Premises Liability Claims

Property owners and lessees have a legal duty to individuals lawfully visiting their premises to maintain their property in a reasonably safe condition.

There are many factors that go into a determination of liability for a property owner or lessee, including whether the owner or lessee caused the condition, if he or she knew or should have known about the condition on the property, and whether the condition was a substantial factor in causing the injury.

Our attorneys have experience handling the following types of premises liability cases:

  • Slip and falls
  • Toxic substances, including lead paint and mold exposure
  • Burns and explosions
  • Swimming accidents
  • Security
