  • Why Buildings Collapse in Jackson

    Buildings can collapse for a variety of reasons. These can include a weak foundation, the building’s age, prolonged exposure to heavy winds and rains, and inadequate maintenance. Occasionally, the building collapses due to problems during construction. Some examples include:

    • Failure to properly waterproof and drain water away from the foundation
    • Improperly installed roofing materials, resulting in moisture intrusion
    • Improperly installed windows, resulting in moisture intrusion
    • Failure to insulate pipes results in condensation buildup that can damage nearby materials
    • Selecting the wrong materials for the job

    If the construction company uses inferior building materials, the building may also be prone to collapse.

  • Why You Need an Attorney If You’re Injured in a Building Collapse

    If you’re injured in a building collapse, you may be entitled to compensation. However, the first step is determining who is responsible for the accident. This is when Morgan & Morgan may be able to help with your personal injury case. Our attorneys can:

    • Gather evidence from the accident scene
    • Determine fault. For example, did a design flaw cause the building to collapse, or was it due to negligent maintenance
    • Calculate your economic and non-economic damages. You may also qualify for punitive damages
    • Submit your settlement offer to the at-fault party’s insurance
    • Conduct the negotiations

    If we cannot reach an agreeable settlement with the insurance company, we will handle all of the details necessary to file your personal injury claim in civil court. We have over 35 years of experience fighting for our client’s legal rights and will work to help ensure you receive full and fair compensation.
