What Should I Do After a Construction Accident?
After experiencing a construction accident, the first step is to seek medical attention right away. Next, report the incident to the construction site supervisor, manager, or any other authority figure as soon as possible. They should document the accident in an official report. Make sure you obtain a copy of this report.
It's also important, but only if possible, to gather evidence related to the accident. Take photographs of the scene, including any hazardous conditions or equipment involved. Even better, if witnesses were present at the time of the incident, try to obtain their contact information.
In addition, keep thorough records of all medical treatments received following the accident. This includes doctor visits, hospital stays, medication prescriptions, and physical therapy sessions - anything related to your injury and recovery process can help substantiate your claim.
Lastly, contact Morgan and Morgan for a no-cost case evaluation.
What if I Cannot Afford a Construction Accident Lawyer?
We understand that this is usually a common concern for many people who have been injured in construction accidents. The good news is that a Lakeland construction accident lawyer from Morgan and Morgan works on a contingency fee basis. This means that they will only be paid if they win your case and secure compensation for you.
When Should I File a Claim?
Your health and safety should always come first. Then, with the help of a Morgan and Morgan attorney, you’ll likely need to file a claim as soon as possible after the accident occurs. This is because there are often time limits, known as statutes of limitations, that dictate how long you have to file a claim. Waiting too long could result in losing your right to seek compensation for your injuries.
What Are Some Possible Injuries Caused by Construction Accidents?
Construction accidents can result in a wide range of injuries, some of which can be severe and life-changing. These include but are not limited to the following:
- Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI) caused by falls from heights or being struck by falling objects.
- Spinal cord injuries due to falls, being struck by heavy equipment or being involved in vehicle accidents on construction sites.
- Broken bones after accidents involving falls, machinery malfunctions, or collapsing structures.
- Burns and electrical injuries caused by using flammable materials and exposure to live wires and other high-risk situations.
- Amputations, especially if safety protocols are not followed rigorously.
