Construction Site Accidents
Injured at a construction site? We can help you get the compensation you deserve.
The combination of heavy equipment, power tools, unfinished structures, scaffolding, open pits, and other hazards can make construction sites very dangerous places, both for workers and for other individuals who may simply be passing by the site. Inadequate safety precautions, insufficient posted warnings, and inexperienced and/or poorly trained workers only make matters worse.

Personal Injury Claims vs Workers’ Compensation Claims
Depending on the circumstances of your construction site accident, you may be able to secure compensation through workers’ comp or by pursing a personal injury claim, or possibly both at the same time.
Workers’ compensation claims are beneficial for individuals who have been injured on the job for any reason. However, they do not allow you to receive damages for pain and suffering.
Personal injury claims provide compensation for medical bills, lost wages, lost earning power, and pain and suffering. They can be filed by workers who were injured due to the negligence of a third party, as well as by passersby who were injured due to negligence at the construction site. Examples 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
