Construction Accident Lawyer in The Villages

Construction accidents often lead to severe injuries. Most of these injuries usually require long-term treatment, leading to a complete change of lifestyle for the victim. Unfortunately, some construction accident victims never live long enough to tell their stories.

Recent data from the Florida Department of Health showed that the construction industry had the highest number of work-related fatalities between 2007 and 20011. The report revealed that at least 747 construction workers were killed while on the job during that period.

A closer look at newer studies shows how south things have recently gone. The US Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates that at least 315 construction workers died on the site in Florida in 2021, the highest death rate in this industry since 2018.

The high number of construction accident injuries and fatalities could only mean one thing: insurance companies are now more prepared than ever to fight back against your claim as they continue to pocket huge premiums from their clients. That's why you should never file such a claim or lawsuit without the help of an experienced The Villages construction accident lawyer from Morgan and Morgan.

FAQ

Morgan & Morgan

    I Got Injured at a Construction Site. What Steps Should I Take?

    The first thing you need to do is seek medical attention immediately. If you were on shift when the accident happened, report it to your supervisor (and obtain a copy of the accident report), document the scene with videos and photos, gather witness information if available, and then contact Morgan and Morgan for a free case review.

    Why Should I Hire a Lawyer?

    You need a lawyer to help you navigate the complex legal processes of construction accident claims and lawsuits, assess liability, gather evidence to substantiate your claim, file a claim with the party they believe is at fault, negotiate with insurance companies for a favorable settlement, and also represent you in court if needed.

    My Employer Says the Accident Was My Fault. Do I Still Have a Case?

    Yes, you may. Your employer claiming the accident was your fault doesn't necessarily negate your ability to have a case. You may still be able to file a workers' compensation claim, which is a form of no-fault insurance for workers.

    What Should I Look for in a Construction Accident Lawyer?

    You deserve a lawyer with experience in construction accident cases, a successful track record of winning such cases, positive client reviews, and access to powerful legal resources to take on any defendant on your behalf. These are the qualities that define a Morgan and Morgan construction accident attorney.

    Who Will the Lawyer File a Claim With?

    It depends on the unique circumstances of your case. Your lawyer may file a workers' compensation claim with your employer's insurance carrier, a personal injury claim against a negligent third party, or both.
