Know All of Your Rights After a Construction Accident
Because the injuries from construction accidents can be so serious, workers' compensation is frequently not sufficient to cover the devastation from serious injuries. In far too many cases, the injured worker cannot return to work.
Be aware that owners, custodians and general contractors of construction sites have an obligation to keep the work site safe. If they fail in that obligation, an injured worker may have a third-party claim in addition to the workers' compensation claim. Consult a law firm with experience in this area of the law to ensure that your rights are fully protected. Talk to a Fairfax construction accident attorney at the Brien Roche law firm.
We Investigate Construction Accidents and Build a Case Fact by Fact
In an occupation where the potential for severe and violent accidents is common, some of the most catastrophic forms of injury and death occur as a result of falls from roofs, crane accidents, heavy equipment accidents, scaffolding collapses, structural cave-ins, electrocution, fires and explosions, compressed and natural gas explosions and welding accidents.
When our law firm investigates, we look for proof of negligence by a third party, usually the owner of the premises where the injury occurred, the general contractor, a subcontractor other than your employer, or the manufacturer of construction equipment that contributed to the injury.
