Construction sites are among the most dangerous work environments, with workers facing daily risks from falls, heavy machinery, electrical hazards, falling objects, and structural collapses.
Federal OSHA regulations require strict safety protocols including proper training, safety equipment, hazard communication, and regular site inspections to protect workers from these inherent dangers.
Our construction accident attorneys have extensive experience handling cases involving scaffolding accidents, crane incidents, trench collapses, electrocutions, and equipment malfunctions.
We thoroughly investigate each accident to determine whether safety violations, inadequate training, defective equipment, or negligent supervision contributed to your injuries.
Construction accident cases often involve multiple potentially liable parties beyond just your direct employer, including general contractors, subcontractors, property owners, equipment manufacturers, and safety consultants.
While workers' compensation may cover basic medical expenses and partial wage replacement, it typically doesn't provide full compensation for your losses, especially in cases involving third-party negligence.
We identify all responsible parties and pursue additional claims that can result in significantly higher compensation than workers' compensation alone, including damages for pain and suffering, full wage replacement, and punitive damages when safety violations are particularly egregious.
Construction injuries are frequently severe and life-altering, including traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, amputations, severe burns, and crushing injuries that can end careers and permanently disable workers.
These catastrophic injuries often require multiple surgeries, extensive rehabilitation, and long-term medical care that can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars over a lifetime.
We work with medical experts, vocational rehabilitation specialists, and economists to accurately calculate the full impact of your injuries, including lost earning capacity, future medical needs, and the effect on your family's financial security.
Our goal is to ensure you receive comprehensive compensation that provides for your needs and your family's future, holding all negligent parties accountable for their role in your preventable workplace injury.
