Construction Accident
Get Help From a Skilled Construction Injury Lawyer
What Is a Construction Accident?
Construction can be a dangerous job, and everyday workers around the United States are injured on construction sites. A construction accident is when a worker is hurt on the job site. Although workers’ compensation is usually available for construction accidents, benefits can be denied. Additionally, other entities or individuals outside of a construction worker’s employer may bear some responsibility for the accident. Regardless of the circumstances, retaining a capable construction injury lawyer is crucial to ensure you receive all the benefits and compensation you deserve.
Common Construction Accident Injuries
Construction sites are filled with heavy equipment, power tools, scaffolding, and hazardous materials. When accidents happen, they’re often catastrophic. Common injuries include:
- Broken bones and fractures
- Spinal cord damage
- Traumatic brain injury
- Amputation
- Severe lacerations
- Hearing loss
- Severe burns
- Paralysis
- Blindness
In some cases, individuals may not be able to return to work after a construction accident because of their injuries. Depending on the circumstances, you may be entitled to compensation, and working with skilled construction site accident lawyers will increase the likelihood of success with your case. At LeFante Law Offices, we will help you receive all the benefits and compensation possible.
