Why Are Construction Accidents So Complex?
A worker injured in the workplace usually has access to the workers’ compensation system to seek compensation for injuries and lost wages. In cases involving construction accidents, however, it can be difficult to determine exactly which employer is responsible. Construction projects usually involve both a general contractor and several subcontractors, and the legal relationship among them can be difficult to untangle.
Furthermore, construction accidents are sometimes caused by equipment failure — for example, in accidents where a crane or forklift malfunctions or scaffolding fails. In such instances, the injured worker may be able to bring a private lawsuit against the equipment manufacturer under the theory of a defective product.
Finally, construction site accidents are often extremely serious. Injuries often include brain or spinal cord damage, amputations, or electrical burns. In serious injury cases, it is critically important to seek legal representation from personal injury lawyers with substantial experience working with medical experts to build a complete picture of the injured worker’s medical needs and damages.
