Construction Accidents

Jobsite accident analysis grounded in how crews actually work, from fall protection to equipment and contractor responsibilities.

Medical office building in the Bronx, New York, from an actual D.A. Doddridge case site — D.A. Doddridge & Associates construction-accident matter in which David Doddridge provided expert testimony; the case resulted in a $62 million plaintiff’s verdict.

We worked with D.A. Doddridge as an expert consultant in Lin v. Hutch Realty, where we obtained a $62 million jury verdict. I have since worked with him on several other matters, and he has consistently been knowledgeable, honest, responsive, and easy to work with: everything an attorney looks for in an expert consultant. His professionalism, attention to detail, and ability to explain complex issues clearly make him an invaluable resource. I highly recommend him and look forward to continuing to work together.
