California Construction Accident Attorney
Construction workers go to work every day trusting their employers to take all necessary precautions to make the jobsite safe, trusting co-workers to be properly trained, and trusting equipment and tools to work as they should. When shortcuts are taken on safety measures or equipment is defective or malfunctions, construction workers are put at serious risk of injury and even death.
Pursuing Legal Action When You’ve Been Injured
When you’ve been seriously injured in a construction site accident, you may be entitled to more compensation than the benefits you receive through workers compensation. To pursue legal action for injuries you sustained at work, you must be able to prove that your injuries are the result of a third party—that is, someone who is not your employer.
Determining Fault after a Construction Site Accident
Since there are often multiple contractors, subcontractors and architects working at a construction site, determining who is ultimately responsible for a construction site accident can be difficult. This is where the assistance of an experienced attorney comes in. A skilled construction accident lawyer can help you determine the party or parties ultimately responsible for your injuries through careful investigation of the accident site, accident report, witness testimony, and any written inspections. Obtaining legal counsel soon after your accident is the best way to protect evidence that can help you determine fault and prove your claim.
