Construction Accident Lawyer in Indianapolis

Your compensation from a construction accident can include both economic and non-economic damages. Since every construction accident is different, it’s best to retain legal representation as soon as possible. Some of the damages you may be able to claim in your personal injury lawsuit can include:

• Medical expenses already incurred and future (long-term) care
• Lost wages
• Future lost income if your injuries and impairments keep you from returning to your previous job
• Pain and suffering—both physical and mental
• Permanent disfigurement or disabilities
• Lost enjoyment of life

If the construction accident results in a fatality, you may be eligible to file a wrongful death for your loved one. Contact Morgan & Morgan to learn more about your options.

Construction sites can seem like places where accidents are just waiting to happen. In some cases, this is true, and negligence may play a factor in your injury case. Some of the accidents that commonly occur on construction sites are:

• Scaffolding collapses
• Trench Collapses
• Heavy machinery mistakes or malfunctions
• Power tool accidents
• Falls from high places
• Objects falling onto workers
• Swinging objects hitting workers
• Getting trapped or crushed between objects or materials
• Electrocutions

These types of accidents can leave you with injuries that take weeks, months, or even years to fully heal. Some injuries may never fully heal, leaving you needing a lifetime of care and medical treatment.

As mentioned, your injuries can be minor, like a cut or bruise that goes away in a few days. Other construction accident injuries are more severe, and some can even be fatal.

• Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)
• Burns
• Severe lacerations
• Amputations
• Cardiac issues from electrical shocks
• Spinal cord injuries
• Broken bones
• Neck and back injuries
• Internal injuries

If you’re injured in a construction accident, it’s best to seek legal advice as soon as possible to protect your rights and your personal injury claim.
