Construction sites can be extremely dangerous. Fortunately, there are laws designed to protect construction workers in the event of an injury.

​

- carpenters 

- crane and forklift operators 

- asbestos removal specialists/handlers 

- electricians 

- plumbers 

- welders 

- concrete installers 

- delivery personnel 

- utility workers 

- engineers 

- glass installers

​

Common labor law accidents involve: 

​

- falls from ladders, scaffolds, and other height related installations 

- crush injuries 

- equipment misuse and malfunction 

- lack of safety devices 

- electrical exposure 

- falling objects 

​

There are a number of complex liability issues that pertain to construction accident lawsuits, so it’s important to contact an attorney who has experience handling third-party injury claims. Our lawyers have handled workplace accidents and personal injury lawsuits for more than two decades and have the resources needed to go up against any insurance company that tries to deny the compensation you are rightfully owed.
