Construction Site Accidents and Industrial Accidents
Construction Site Accidents and Industrial Accidents
Industrial workers and workers at construction sites are seriously injured every day because of someone’s negligence, carelessness or failure to warn of hidden dangers. Most of these injured workers assume they can only recover workers compensation benefits because they were working at the time. We have the experience in these types of matters to investigate and prove that companies other than the injured worker’s employer were at fault. If you were injured in a workplace accident, it is important that you contact a personal injury attorney to explore whether you are limited to workers compensation benefits or whether you can also recover full and fair compensation for your injuries from the third party that caused the accident.
We have represented workers injured on the job in an industrial or construction site setting. These cases involve a very complex area of law that requires the attorney to determine exactly who was at fault and whether the other company should have exercised certain precautions at the work site. Our office understands the nuances of that frequently arise in these cases:
- OSHA violations
- Negligence of contractors working on the site
- Defective products (scaffolding, ladders, machinery) at the work site
- Contractual obligations between general contractors and subcontractors
on the job
We aggressively litigate cases involving construction site accidents or industrial accidents or other injuries in the workplace. Often battling several other companies and their lawyers, we locate the key witnesses, co-workers, employees from other companies and obtain the necessary documents that prove workplace violations or safety violations that bring about our client’s injuries.
If you were injured at a construction site, industrial plant, or even in the workplace, do not be lulled into thinking your only remedy is workers compensation benefits. You may have a third party claim against other businesses that contributed to the accident. Call us at (310) 226-7676 to arrange a free, confidential consultation. There are no attorney’s fees unless we recover compensation for you
