When Can Construction Accident Victims Pursue Personal Injury Claims?
If you have been injured in a construction accident, you may have the right to seek compensation. While workers’ compensation typically covers on-the-job injuries, it may not always provide a complete remedy, especially if a third party caused or contributed to your accident.
Victims of workplace accidents can pursue personal injury claims when negligence—in addition to or outside their employer’s actions—is a factor.
For instance:
A contractor failed to follow safety protocols, leading to your injury.
Faulty equipment caused or worsened an accident.
A property owner failed to address hazardous conditions on a construction site.
Understanding your rights and options for compensation while navigating legal complexities can be challenging. Discussing your circumstances with one of our experienced attorneys is the smart way to decide who is the best personal injury lawyer for your construction accident.

Who May Be Held Responsible for Construction Accident Injuries?
Who is responsible for your construction accident? Parties may be liable for your construction accidents if they break safety law.
Employers: They must provide safe working conditions and proper training. Their failure to do so can contribute to accidents.
Contractors and subcontractors: They must adhere to safety regulations on-site. They may be held accountable if their negligence or poor supervision causes harm.
Equipment manufacturers: Defective or malfunctioning tools, machinery, or safety equipment can lead to severe injuries. Manufacturers can be held liable if the defect contributed to the accident.
Property owners: Construction site owners are responsible for addressing potential hazards that could result in injuries to workers or bystanders.
Identifying the responsible party (or parties) is critical to building a solid case that can lead to well-founded settlement negotiations or civil court trials.
