TIMELY. OBJECTIVE. CREDIBLE.
Crane cases rarely involve one isolated decision. Operators, riggers, signal persons, supervisors, contractors, equipment providers, lift plans, site conditions, and jobsite procedures all have to work together. An experienced New York crane expert witness looks beyond the equipment itself to understand the complete operation, determine what happened, and identify the actions and responsibilities that matter. Just as important, complex crane terminology and technical issues must be explained clearly in language that attorneys, judges, and juries can understand.
