Construction Injury Attorneys

When discussing construction workplace injuries, you typically are not talking about a car accident. Construction sites are dangerous places, and you have injuries related to debris falling from above such as hammers, bricks, supplies, or even people. In these types of construction workplace injuries, it is important to determine who is responsible for your injury. At a construction site you may have multiple different trades all under different company names working simultaneously such as plumbers, electricians, carpenters, etc.

If you are on the job at a construction site and you are injured by someone working for another company, then you generally have a workers compensation claim for your injuries, but you also have a personal injury claim under common law against that person and their company who are responsible for your injuries.

In construction injury cases we also see injuries that are related to product failure. We call these product liability cases. For example, scaffolding has failed, a piece of machinery has injured someone, or a safety mechanism has been removed. In situations where a safety mechanism has been tampered with, the responsibility may not lie with the individual using the equipment but with the company responsible for removing the safety feature.
