Construction Accidents

Construction Site Accidents Litigation and Trial Lawyers

Construction sites are inherently dangerous and require a significant amount of diligence and care to maintain the safety of workers and pedestrians. Both state and federal regulations seek to ensure the safety of machinery, equipment, and the premises. When a property owner or construction company fails to safely manage and operate a construction site, workers and passersby can suffer serious, even fatal, injuries. At Ward & Smith Law Firm, we are experienced in handling complex litigation arising out of construction site accidents.

Construction accidents can involve complex questions of law, and they require experienced advocacy to overcome formidable defendants including construction and insurance companies. Let us protect your rights.

Call us toll free at 866.305.6400 or contact us by email to schedule a free consultation with a Board Certified Personal Injury Trial Lawyer.

Our trial lawyers are experienced in construction accidents claims involving:

Workers' compensation and 3rd party claims

Many victims of construction accidents are actually workers at the site. While workers' compensation may prohibit you or a loved one from bringing a lawsuit against an employer, you do have the right to bring claims against liable third parties including product manufacturers, property owners, and negligent subcontractors. We will identify every party legally responsible for an accident and aggressively pursue maximum compensation.

Immediate investigations to preserve evidence

One of the primary goals of an attorney is to identify every party responsible for an accident or injury. We will begin an immediate investigation to preserve evidence for your case or claim. Attorneys from our firm will consult with witnesses, work with experts, and collect accident reports, police documentation, and hospital records to build necessary evidence for your claim. We will go to the scene of the accident as soon as possible to ensure that nothing is tampered with, especially evidence that can be gleaned directly from the site.
