How Can a Lawyer Help With a Construction Accident?
When you’re injured on a construction site, the responsible and their insurance company will likely do everything in their power to minimize the extent of your injuries and the compensation you are entitled to. This is why having an experienced lawyer can make all the difference. A skilled lawyer can advocate for your rights and negotiate with the insurance company on your behalf, ensuring that you get the maximum amount of compensation available to you.
Another reason why you need a lawyer for a construction injury is that they can help you determine who is liable for your injuries. Construction sites can be complex, with multiple parties involved including contractors, subcontractors, engineers, and architects. Determining who is responsible for your injuries is crucial because it could impact the amount of compensation you receive.
What Injuries Workers' Compensation Not Cover?
While workers’ comp provides benefits to cover many injuries, there are some circumstances in which it doesn't provide coverage, including the following:
1. Intentional Acts and Self-Inflicted Injuries: Workers’ compensation does not cover injuries that are intentionally caused by the employee or injuries that are self-inflicted. For example, if an employee intentionally harms themselves or purposely puts themselves in a dangerous situation, their workers’ compensation claim will be denied. Similarly, if an employee causes harm to themselves or others due to drug or alcohol use, their claim will most likely be denied.
2. Injuries From Horseplay or Fighting: Injuries that occur during horseplay or fighting are typically not covered by workers’ compensation. This includes situations where employees are engaging in roughhousing or playful behavior that leads to injury. If an employee gets involved in a physical altercation with another employee or a customer, their claim could be denied.
3. Injuries That Occur During Commute: Injuries that occur during an employee's commute to and from work are not covered by workers’ compensation. However, if the employee was running an errand for their employer or was traveling for work-related purposes, their claim may be covered.
