Construction Law

The Academy actively advocates for laws and policies in construction law to ensure the safety of consumers and the public. 

Legislative Advocacy for Safety

• Lobbying for Stronger Regulations: The Academy employs professional lobbyists to push for stringent safety regulations in construction projects. This includes advocating for laws that mandate rigorous safety standards and regular inspections to prevent accidents and ensure safe construction practices.
• Supporting Consumer Protection Laws: The Academy supports legislation that protects consumers from unsafe construction practices. This includes advocating for laws that hold contractors and construction companies accountable for negligence and substandard work.

By focusing on these advocacy efforts, the New York State Academy of Trial Lawyers plays a crucial role in promoting laws and policies that enhance construction safety, ultimately protecting consumers and the public.
