Determining Who Was at Fault for Your Serious Injuries
Everyone involved in overseeing a construction site needs to take special care to protect the safety of everyone working on or passing through the site. There are any number of types of serious potential construction accident scenarios, including the following:
- Scaffolding accidents
- Crane accidents
- Hidden holes and hazards
- Falling lumber and steel
- Malfunctioning heavy equipment
The Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA) and other agencies have issued strict regulations governing safety on construction sites. In some cases, parties involved in construction projects have specific legal responsibilities toward workers.
Our attorneys are experienced at evaluating the causes of construction accidents with the help of skilled professionals such as engineers and former government employees.
Evaluating Your Case for All Possible Sources of Compensation
If you were injured in an accident while working construction, you are almost certainly entitled to claim workers' compensation. However, if you were injured due to the negligence of someone other than your employer, you may also be entitled to personal injury compensation.
We will carefully evaluate your case to determine whether you have a personal injury claim against another contractor, a property owner, or another party. We can also help you pursue the full workers' comp benefits you deserve.
