Mike Ranzenhofer

Buffalo Farm Accident Lawyer

I read somewhere that being a Farmer is one of the most dangerous occupations in the United States.

I'm really not surprised. Farmers work with a lot of heavy equipment in remote locations - and that puts famers and laborers at a higher risk for serious personal injury.

The equipment farm workers use can sometimes lack proper safety shut-offs, guards, or shields, which can cause catastrophic injuries such as crushed limbs or even amputation.

I have seen farm workers injured by power drives, augers, hay bailers, power take-offs, and barn cleaners.

These injuries can be extremely traumatic and not only impact the farmer or laborer - but their families as well.

And in New York, if you or your family member was injured in farming accident because of faulty equipment, you may be entitled to financial compensation.

I will work with engineers to determine the reason for your accident and if any design or operating defects contributed to your injuries.

I'll also work with medical experts so I can fully understand the extent of your injuries. And if needed, I'll speak with occupational consultants to determine if and when you can return to work.

If your injuries make it impossible for you to return to work at your farm or place of employment, part of any financial settlement can be used to help you qualify for a new position in another field.

As an experienced WNY farming accident lawyer, I am dedicated to helping families like yours obtain compensation for your losses.

For more than two decades, I've helped clients recover monetary awards after suffering traumatic injuries due to defective farm equipment.
