    When buildings collapse, often, investigators determine that the accident could have been prevented. With so many regulations and building codes in place to protect citizens locally and nationally, it is hard to imagine that building collapses still occur, especially in our nation’s capital. Unfortunately, they do.

    Often driven by negligence, recklessness, or pure greed, maintenance failures, and construction deficiencies are usually the culprits behind building collapses, according to research. When a building collapse in Washington, DC, occurs, it leaves individuals to suffer severe, life-altering injuries and significant property damage in their wake.

    At Morgan & Morgan, a leading national personal injury law firm with 1,000 attorneys licensed to practice in all 50 states, we’ve secured $25 billion for people who have been injured in preventable accidents, including partial and total building collapses.

    After a deliberation with the insurance company I received Great service after all is said and done Caleb Riggins handled my case with care and professionalism. At the end of the day, Morgan & Morgan stood with me and got me as much as they could in return for being hit off my bike in DC streets.

    After an accident in February 2025, and after another law firm kept me waiting, I contacted Morgan and Morgan. They were professional, caring, sincere and told me everything I needed to know, and asked me whatever they needed. At this time they are still diligently working on my case to bring about a GREAT outcome!
