The Law Offices of Kevin M. Siegel can help you and provide support if you or someone you know has been in an accident involving a construction site accident.
Construction workers are entitled to a workplace free of accidents and foreseeable injuries. When an incident does occur, the results may be devastating and catastrophic. An injured worker may incur substantial loss as a result of missing time from work or being unable to return to work completely. The resulting injury may result in a permanent loss of pre-accident function.
In such a large industry, there are hundreds of accidents that can happen, from stepping on a nail to gas explosions. Some of the most common accidents include:
Trench Collapses
Electrical Accidents
Welding Accidents
Elevator Accidents
Structure Failure
Construction Site Falls
Fires and Explosions
Building Collapse
Workers Being Run-Over by Equipment
Having a competent attorney on your side to help you navigate the often confusing and overwhelming issues that arise after a construction accident is vitally important. An attorney will serve as your advocate and can assist you in getting medical expenses paid by the proper party, aid you in receiving worker’s compensation, helping you with insurance issues and, if necessary, filing a lawsuit to compensate you for your losses due to an accident.
