Construction Site Accidents

Injured at a construction site? We can help you get the compensation you deserve.

Construction is one of the most dangerous occupations in America, as workers often have to do their jobs without adequate training or safety precautions. Bystanders can also get injured by construction site hazards like heavy equipment, unfinished structures, open pits, and scaffolding.

Personal Injury Claims vs Workers’ Compensation Claims

Workers’ compensation claims can be filed by any employee who is hurt on the job for any reason, even if they were at fault for their own accident. The only down side is this type of claim does not allow you to collect compensation for pain and suffering.

If you were hurt due to someone else’s negligence, it is typically to your advantage to file a personal injury claim. This will allow you to collect compensation for pain and suffering, medical expenses, lost wages, and lost earning potential. Examples of construction site accidents justifying a personal injury claim include:

A pedestrian who was injured when scaffolding collapsed on a sidewalk
A bystander hit by a falling object
A construction worker injured by a defective power tool
A worker injured due to the negligence of a sub-contractor
