Common Types of Construction Site Injuries
Construction accidents can occur for a variety of reasons, from operating defective equipment to lacking protective gear. Our firm represents injured workers following all types of construction site injuries, including:
Falls from Heights
Falls are the leading cause of death on construction sites. They commonly occur when workers are exposed to unprotected edges, unstable scaffolding, or unsafe ladders, especially without proper training or fall-protection equipment.
Struck-By Objects
Struck-by accidents happen when workers are hit by falling tools, debris, or moving materials. These incidents are often linked to unsecured loads, poor communication, or missing safety barriers.
Caught-In / Caught-Between Injuries
Caught-in or caught-between injuries occur when workers are trapped between equipment, machinery, or collapsing trenches. Common causes include missing safeguards and improper trenching.
Electrocution
Electrocution accidents result from contact with live electrical sources, such as power lines or exposed wiring. They frequently happen when electrical hazards are not properly identified, insulated, or controlled.
Work Vehicle Accidents
Construction vehicle accidents commonly involve limited visibility, blind spots, or congested work zones, increasing the risk of collisions while backing up, turning, or transporting equipment.
Equipment Accidents
Equipment accidents involving forklifts and other heavy machinery often stem from operator error, inadequate training, mechanical failure, or misuse of machinery beyond its intended capacity.
Hazardous Exposure
Hazardous exposure occurs when construction workers are exposed to toxic substances like asbestos, silica dust, or chemical fumes. Exposure can lead to long-term illnesses, including mesothelioma, lung cancer, and organ damage.
I Suffered a Construction Injury at Park & Brookes Avenues. Can I File a Third-Party Injury Claim if I Receive Workers’ Compensation Benefits?
When a worker is injured on the job, workers’ compensation is generally their exclusive remedy against their employer. If you accept benefits after a construction accident at Park and Brookes Avenues, you typically waive your right to file a personal injury lawsuit against your employer. This is known as the “exclusive remedy” rule.
However, the worker can still file a third-party claim against anyone other than the employer, such as a subcontractor, manufacturer, or property owner who contributed to the accident. This allows the worker to pursue damages that workers’ comp doesn’t cover, such as pain and suffering, emotional distress, or long-term disability costs.
If you pursue a third-party claim, the workers’ compensation insurer may place a lien on your recovery to recoup benefits already paid. Our lawyers can investigate the construction accident and recommend a strategic approach to maximize your financial recovery, whether through workers’ comp benefits or a third-party lawsuit.
If you or a loved one was harmed in a construction accident, don’t navigate this challenging time alone. Contact us online to discuss your case with our skilled attorneys. Pay nothing until we win or settle your claim.
