Case Study: Aarav K. — Kensington Ladder Fall on Scaffold (Undocumented Worker) Aarav K. worked on brick-facing and exterior brickwork cleaning in Kensington, Brooklyn. While moving between sections of the façade, he stepped onto a ladder positioned along scaffolding. The ladder shifted, and Aarav fell hard, twisting his back and striking his shoulder and knee before landing. He reported pain immediately and struggled to lift, bend, or climb. Because Aarav is undocumented, he feared that seeking help would put his job at risk. The employer also hinted that reporting the accident would “cause problems,” and the insurance carrier initially treated the incident as minor. Cass & Peters stepped in to protect Aarav’s rights. We ensured the mechanism of injury was documented, coordinated treatment and medical proof connecting the injury to the ladder-and-scaffold fall, and handled the Workers’ Compensation Board filings. We pushed back on attempts to minimize the claim and helped Aarav secure ongoing medical care and wage replacement benefits so he could recover without losing financial stability.
