Standing up For the Rights of Injured Construction Workers
Construction sites are full of heavy machinery in all sorts of shapes and sizes. While some of it may be easy to operate and smaller than others, it can still be equally as dangerous.
We can help you if you are injured on a job site by any heavy equipment, including:
Jackhammers
Forklifts
Power tools (nail guns, power saws, etc.)
Cranes
Large trucks (dump trucks, cement trucks, etc.)
Earthmovers
The laws protect victims of heavy machinery accidents, but insurance companies frequently try to find loopholes in these laws to circumvent their obligation to pay out on claims. This can leave you wondering where to turn when bills for medical expenses, medications, rehabilitation treatments and more continue to add up while you are not being paid for missing work. Our attorneys understand the impact this can have on you, and we work hard to ensure you are properly compensated after an injury.
