Construction work demands skill, but it also exposes workers to falls, heavy equipment, electrical hazards, unstable surfaces, and rushed job sites. When a construction worker is seriously hurt, the legal issues can be more complex than a standard workers’ compensation claim.
Construction injuries deserve a full investigation
General contractors, subcontractors, property owners, equipment companies, and other vendors may all have responsibilities for safety. We investigate how the incident happened, preserve evidence, and determine whether a third-party claim exists in addition to workers’ compensation benefits.
Common construction accidents
- Falls from ladders, scaffolds, roofs, or elevated platforms
- Crane, forklift, and heavy-equipment accidents
- Falling-object and trench-collapse injuries
- Electrical injuries, burns, and explosions
- Defective tools, machinery, and safety equipment
