Why choose our firm?
Whether you’re a construction worker or a civilian, injuries can come from a variety of sources. It helps to know what may happen so that you know what to do after your injury.
Injuries from falling debris – These are quite common because of the nature of construction and can be caused by structural problems with an existing building which causes instability and ultimately pieces can fall off and cause injury. This can also happen with new construction that is in process when something isn’t secured properly and as a result comes loose and falls down.
Injuries from malfunctioning equipment – There is often a lot of heavy equipment in operation on a construction site. From moving equipment to equipment used in the actual construction of the building, there is a constant potential for large equipment to malfunction and cause injury to anyone nearby.
Fires and Explosions – Another hazard in construction that can cause an accident or injury is the potential during construction work for fires and explosions to occur. Depending on the chemicals and components being worked with, a fire or explosion could happen at any time, resulting in severe injury or fatality to workers or even people in adjacent buildings or passersby.
Falls – Construction workers are at high risk of being injured from accidental falls. Working in high areas they rely on whatever safety equipment is available to keep them safe. In some cases the equipment can malfunction or can be missing altogether.
