Common Causes Of Construction Accidents
Even the most experienced workers face hazards on Indiana job sites every day. Safety regulations exist for a reason, but subcontractors or site managers do not always follow them. Injuries often result from:
- Falls from ladders, roofs, or unstable scaffolding
- Electrocutions involving power lines or faulty wiring
- Impacts from falling tools, materials, or debris
- Crushing accidents involving forklifts or cranes
- Trench collapses during excavation work
These events often result in broken bones, spinal cord damage or traumatic brain injuries. We investigate the details of your accident to identify every party that might bear responsibility.
Seeking Worker’s Compensation Benefits
The worker’s compensation system provides a vital safety net for medical care and lost wages. However, the application process involves complicated steps and strict legal deadlines. We help you manage the paperwork and meet every requirement of the Indiana Worker’s Compensation Board.
Time is your biggest enemy after an on-the-job injury. You must report your injury to your employer within 30 days, and you generally have two years to file a formal claim. We track these deadlines for you so you never lose your right to seek support.
Insurance adjusters often try to minimize your injuries to save their company money. We stand up to these corporations to protect your right to fair compensation under Indiana law.
Third-Party Personal Injury Claims
In many construction accidents, a person or company other than your employer may share the blame, such as a negligent driver on a road site or a manufacturer of a defective power tool. When this happens, we help you pursue a third-party personal injury claim alongside your worker’s compensation case.
A third-party claim can provide compensation for damages that worker’s compensation does not cover, such as pain and suffering. We review your case to determine if this additional path to recovery fits your situation.
We strive to secure the total financial support you need to move forward with your life. Our attorney explores every available legal avenue to maximize the resources available for your recovery.
