Construction sites are rapidly changing environments, and unsafe conditions may be altered or removed quickly—scaffolding may be dismantled, debris cleaned, or signage changed. That’s why it is crucial to act immediately. Document the area where the incident occurred, including the names of all contractors, subcontractors, or third parties involved. Remember, it is your burden under the law to prove that a contractor, property owner, or other responsible party failed to provide a reasonably safe worksite or violated safety regulations.
 

Types of Construction Accident Cases We Typically Handle:

Falls from Heights – Including falls from scaffolding, ladders, roofs, or unprotected edges. Employers are required to provide fall protection and comply with OSHA safety standards.
 

Falling Objects – Injuries from tools, building materials, or debris that were not properly secured. These incidents are often the result of careless procedures or inadequate site safety measures.
 

Scaffolding Collapses – Improper construction or maintenance of scaffolding can lead to catastrophic failures, causing serious injury or death.
 

Equipment Malfunctions – Injuries caused by defective or poorly maintained machinery such as forklifts, cranes, bulldozers, or nail guns. Liability may fall on the equipment manufacturer or the party responsible for maintenance.
 

Electrocutions and Fires – Resulting from exposed wiring, power line contact, or faulty electrical systems. Employers and site supervisors have a duty to ensure the site is safe from such hazards.

Trench and Structure Collapses – When excavations or partially constructed structures cave in due to a lack of proper reinforcement or safety measures.
 

Third-Party Negligence – Many construction accidents are caused not by the direct employer, but by subcontractors, equipment suppliers, or property owners. These third parties may also be held accountable.
