Fighting on Your Behalf for the Compensation You Deserve

Filing a Personal Injury Claim

There are some situations in which an injured worker can file a personal injury claim for an injury sustained at a construction site. A worker would not be able to sue the subcontractor, but he or she can sue a manufacturer if the cause of the accident was faulty equipment. Personal injury claims generally have a greater potential for more substantial damages, so filing the right claim is important for ensuring you maximize compensation for your injuries.

Pedestrians who sustain injuries at construction sites can also file a personal injury claim. For example, if debris at a construction site were to fall on a pedestrian, resulting in injuries, he or she can file a personal injury claim against the contractor. Moreover, construction sites can cause injuries even after the active operation is complete. If a builder forgot to properly secure a heavy object and it fell through another floor, resulting in injuries, a personal injury lawsuit could be filed against the contractor.

Compensation in a Construction Site Accident

If you are only eligible for workers’ compensation after sustaining injuries at a construction site, you would be able to receive a portion of your missed wages. Additionally, the medical expenses associated with your injuries would be covered by workers’ compensation insurance as well.

If you have a viable personal injury claim, however, the damages you can potentially recover include medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and reduced quality of life.
