Construction Site Accidents

If you have been injured on a construction site, workers’ compensation benefits may not be your only remedy.  Frequently, these accidents are caused by subcontractors or other entities on the construction site who may be liable to you for your injuries.  The failure to adhere to safe practices on the premises may also be the result of improper planning or due to engineering defects which may implicate architects and/or engineers for liability for your injuries.

If you are on workers’ compensation, you should consult with your workers’ compensation attorney to determine whether you possibly have a third-party liability claim.  Our firm has handled many such referrals which enable the injured worker to be compensated fully for his losses not just the wage loss benefits and medical payments afforded by workers’ compensation.
