Construction Accidents
Construction zones contain unique hazards. These hazards have the potential to change your life when something goes wrong. If you suffered a severe injury at a construction site, you should know your options.
At the Law Office of Victoria Wickman, your physical and financial recovery are the priority. As your lawyers, we will be ready to stand up for your needs. We bring a wealth of deep medical and legal knowledge to each case, along with our strong reputation in the legal community.
You Deserve Justice After A Serious Accident
Being injured on the job as a construction worker needs a civil suit by a knowledgeable trial attorney to provide adequate compensation. The workers’ compensation system does not offer enough to provide what is necessary for you and your family.
A civil case coordinated along with the workers’ compensation award is what you need to attain fair justice. The Law Office of Victoria Wickman will provide you with free advice and assistance if you have been injured in a construction accident or sustained any catastrophic injury.
Some common types of construction accidents include:
- Falls
- Back injury
- Neck injury
- Laceration
- Burns
- Electrical injuries
- Automobile collisions at construction sites
- Scaffold injuries
- Crane accidents
- Trench accidents
- Equipment accidents
- Amputation or crushing
- Impalement
- Ironworkers and welding accidents
- Superintendent negligence
- General contractors’ delay, neglect and unsafe acts
After a construction accident, it is vital to speak with your lawyer as soon as possible. These types of cases are subject to a deadline, or statute of limitations. After that deadline passes, you are no longer able to seek compensation for injuries – no matter how life-changing they might be. In addition, starting early can give you the best chance to find evidence and consider your options with your attorney.
