Common Causes of Construction Site Injuries

The chaotic nature of construction work creates the potential for serious accidents. Some of the most common causes we see include:

• Falls from scaffolding, ladders, or rooftops
• Electrocutions from exposed wiring or power tools
• Struck-by incidents involving falling objects or machinery
• Trench collapses
• Heavy equipment accidents
• Unsafe working conditions or lack of protective gear
• Defective tools or malfunctioning machinery

Our attorneys will investigate the cause of your accident thoroughly to identify all responsible parties and ensure that no detail is overlooked in your case.

Serious Injuries Require Serious Representation

Construction accident injuries are often severe and life-changing. Victims may suffer from:

• Traumatic brain injuries
• Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
• Amputations
• Fractures and crushed bones
• Burns or electrocution-related injuries
• Vision or hearing loss

These injuries often demand extensive medical care, long-term rehabilitation, and time away from work. In some cases, victims may be permanently disabled. You need a legal team that understands both the immediate and future implications of your injuries.

Seeking Compensation for Your Losses

Depending on your case, you may be entitled to compensation for both economic and noneconomic losses, including:

• Medical bills (current and future)
• Lost wages and reduced earning capacity
• Pain and suffering
• Disability and disfigurement
• Loss of enjoyment of life
• Emotional distress

If your loved one died in a construction accident, a wrongful death claim may be appropriate to recover funeral expenses, loss of financial support, and the emotional toll of the loss.
