Construction Site Accidents

California Construction Accident Lawyers

Construction sites are a breeding ground for safety hazards. Construction site accidents inflict serious injury or death upon hundreds of thousands of workers every year. Some of the catastrophic injures endured by tradesmen include sever fracture injuries, brain trauma and spinal cord injuries, serious burns, loss of limb, and crush injuries.

If you have suffered a severe work injury, or someone you care for was injured or killed in a construction accident, we can help. Contact a skilled California construction accident lawyer for information about how you and your family can recover financial compensation for damages incurred following a work injury.

The Corbett Law Firm is a San Francisco personal injury law firm that represents workers who have been seriously injured at work.

Common construction site accidents include:

• Falling debris
• Scaffolding collapses

California Construction Accident Lawyers with Extensive Personal Injury Experience

In most cases, the employee is able to recover workers’ compensation benefits to help offset the financial burdens associated with their construction site injury. However, an injured worker is entitled to seek additional compensation if evidence suggests that an employer or contractor created a hazardous workplace in failing to comply with stringent safety regulations.

The national and California divisions of the Occupational Health and Safety Act (OSHA) clearly define an employer’s obligation to provide employees with a safe work environment. Our construction accident attorneys are well versed in the federal and state safety standards that employers and contractors must adhere to. In turn, we have helped hundreds of employees recover additional compensation for medical expenses, wage loss, and pain and suffering.
