The Dangers Of Construction Sites
If you have been injured while working on a construction site, you will likely be able to pursue compensation through a workers’ compensation claim. If your accident was caused by a negligent third party (not your employer or a co-worker,) you may also be able to pursue a personal injury claim or lawsuit. This additional avenue of compensation gives accident victims the potential of receiving significantly larger financial awards for their injuries and other losses.
There are many ways in which a construction site accident can result in a third-party claim. Examples include:
- A vehicle accident that occurs while you are on the job
- Injuries suffered due to the negligence of a contractor or subcontractor
- Injuries caused by defective or improperly installed equipment
People passing through construction zones on highways can also be injured due to the negligence of another. If the construction site was hazardous and the dangerous conditions resulted in a car accident or truck accident, it is important for victims to explore their legal options. Our experienced personal injury attorney can help you with all aspects of your claim and help you pursue maximum compensation for the losses you have suffered.
