What Are Some Common Injuries at Construction Sites?
Construction sites pose various risks to workers and even the general public (if negligence is involved), leading to common injuries such as falls, electrocutions, and being struck by objects. Our lawyers have also handled accidents involving heavy machinery, scaffolding collapses, and exposure to hazardous materials, known for causing serious injuries ranging from minor cuts and bruises to severe fractures, spinal injuries, or even fatalities.
What Long-Term Effects Can Construction Accident Injuries Have on the Victim?
Severe injuries may result in chronic pain, limited mobility, or permanent disabilities, affecting the individual's ability to work and enjoy a normal quality of life. Psychological effects such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) are also common in such cases, impacting the victim's mental health.
Who Can I Hold Responsible for the Accident?
In such cases, liability can fall on contractors, sub-contractors, and even equipment manufacturers. A construction accident lawyer from our team can help investigate the specifics of the incident, identify the responsible parties, and potentially file a claim with them.
When Is Filing a Lawsuit the Better Option?
Filing a lawsuit may be better if a third party's negligence contributed to the accident, allowing you to seek additional damages not covered by workers' compensation. By "third party" we mean delivery drivers, equipment manufacturers, or any other party besides your employer.
What Damages Can I Recover if I Win?
It depends on whether you file a workers' compensation claim, a lawsuit, or even both. If you win your workers' comp claim, you may recover damages such as medical expenses and lost wages up to a certain limit. If you file a lawsuit, you may recover non-economic damages such as pain and suffering, emotional distress, and the loss of enjoyment of life, on top of economic damages.
I'm Ready To Hire a Lawyer. How Much Will It Cost?
Our attorneys only get paid if you win your case. In other words, the fee is free unless we win. This payment system, known as the "contingency fee" system, ensures that anyone can access top-notch legal representation regardless of financial situation.
