Construction Accidents

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Construction workers deal with some of the most dangerous working conditions faced by employees in any industry. We understand this.

 

Construction accident injuries can result from the following:

  • errors in judgment
  • faulty equipment
  • falls from scaffolds
  • being struck by falling materials or machinery
  • defective or unreasonably unsafe equipment
  • chemical leaks or explosions
  • electrical accidents and electrocution injuries
  • Other.  
    Thousands of construction workers are injured or killed in construction site accidents each year.

 

The general contractor and all subcontractors are required to provide a reasonably safe site, to warn of hazards inherent in the site and work, to hire careful employees, to coordinate job safety, and to supervise compliance with safety specifications. Still, work site injuries occur due to the inadequacy of these provisions. When a construction site accident occurs, the owners, architects, insurance companies and manufacturers of equipment can be held responsible for inadequate safety provisions.

 

Workers' Compensation Acts provide benefits to workers who are injured on the job. Unfortunately, Workers' Compensation alone may be insufficient compensation especially in the case of very serious and catastrophic personal injuries. We know, from our many clients, as experienced construction accident lawyers, the extreme difficulties that have to be faced when you are injured and cannot work to support your family.
