CLE Webinar: New York Labor Law Update: Recent Appellate Cases and Litigation Under Sections 200, 240(1), and 241(6)

CLE Events | Event Date: February 23, 2026 at 2:00PM

Later this month, join us for a CLE webinar hosted by Lawline. Michael B. Titowsky, Esq., a NAM Hearing Officer with decades of experience litigating New York Labor Law matters, presents a timely update on New York Labor Law, with a focus on Sections 200, 240(1), and 241(6). Drawing from recent appellate decisions, he provides practical insights into how courts are interpreting these statutes in the context of construction accident litigation.

The first half of the program offers a refresher on the statutory framework that underpins Labor Law litigation, including the distinctions between general negligence (Section 200), gravity-related hazards (Section 240[1]), and code-based safety violations (Section 241[6]). The second half examines recent decisions from the First and Second Departments, highlighting judicial trends in liability, defenses, and evidentiary issues. Attorneys, insurance professionals, and mediators will gain tools for evaluating claims and navigating the evolving landscape of construction-related litigation in New York.
