Your employer is obligated to pay for your medical care and lost wages, as well as loss of use or disfigurement. But we know that construction companies and their insurance carriers often deny claims from construction site accidents.
Contact Us After Your Job Site Injury
We educate you about your workers’ compensation rights and make sure your benefits are calculated correctly. We also explore lawsuits against third parties for negligence — such as a manufacturer of unsafe equipment, or another subcontractor on the site who created dangerous conditions.
Don’t assume that your employer will take care of you after a construction site accident. Contact experienced lawyers who fight for you. Your initial consultation is free and we take no fees unless we secure your benefits or a settlement.
