CONSTRUCTION ACCIDENTS

Construction workers play a vital role in the growth of our society, but due to the nature of their jobs, they, unfortunately, must labor in potentially dangerous conditions. As a result, serious accidents are common in the construction industry, but the compensation provided by the state and federal governments for injuries sustained by construction workers does not always adequately compensate for the pain and suffering endured.

COMMON TYPES OF CONSTRUCTION ACCIDENTS

A construction accident can cause injury in many ways. Some common types of construction accidents include:

  • Falls
  • Machinery defects – faulty scaffolding, cranes, ladders, forklifts, bulldozers
  • Electrocution – faulty power lines
  • Fires and explosions
  • Structure collapse
  • Builder negligence
  • Inadequate supervision
  • Non-compliance with OSHA safety

CONSTRUCTION INJURIES REQUIRE EXPERIENCED ATTORNEYS

Construction accident victims require powerful representation if they are to receive the compensation they deserve. Injured construction workers should contact an experienced injury attorney to evaluate their case to see if the law will allow them to recover more than what workers’ compensation provides for.

Construction accident lawsuits are complex because a multitude of parties will be involved. The injured worker will fight developers, contractors, subcontractors, material suppliers, owners, engineers, insurance companies, and more. Each of these parties will try to deny responsibility for the accident, so it will take expert legal representation to investigate the facts and present them in court to hold the appropriate parties liable.

COMPENSATION AVAILABLE IN A CONSTRUCTION ACCIDENT

Typically, workers’ compensation will pay for the injured victim’s medical care and lost wages, but the compensation is limited and does not assign fault. This compensation is usually paid for by workers’ compensation insurance that construction companies carry for their employees on the job.

PARRIS lawyers believe that if the law allows it, an injured worker should seek damages beyond those provided in workers’ compensation to ensure that you can obtain maximum legal damages for medical expenses and future care, as well as for pain and suffering and loss of enjoyment of life.
