Chicago Construction Accident Lawyers For Job Site Accidents
Last updated on April 29, 2024
A typical construction project – whether commercial or residential – requires the collaborative efforts of multiple parties. General contractors, subcontractors, equipment manufacturers, material men, delivery truck drivers, property owners and other parties in any combination can be on the job site on any one particular day. When an individual is injured in a construction accident arising from a third party’s negligence, that individual is entitled to damages.
Combining Experience And Knowledge For Construction Accident Personal Injury Claims
Steinberg, Goodman & Kalish has in-depth knowledge of construction law and knows how to hold parties responsible when they fail to properly maintain equipment, employ safe methods and practices, or keep a construction site safe. Failures at any level can result in:
- Accidents resulting from faulty forklifts and cranes
- Injuries from other types of equipment and machinery, including ladders, backhoes, saws and nail guns
- Catastrophic injuries from falling objects and debris
- Scaffolding accidents caused by lack of protection from falls
Our personal injury attorneys have experience handling third-party construction accident claims arising from defective products. These types of personal injury claims are pursued as product liability claims. Heavy equipment is often found to be unsafe because of a lack of guarding on machinery, inadequate warnings on machinery, or a design or manufacturing defect.
Construction Accidents Can Cause Serious Injuries And Death
Steinberg, Goodman & Kalish is dedicated to protecting the rights of those who have sustained brain injuries, spinal cord injuries and other life-altering injuries. We strive to obtain justice for our injured clients in the form of fair compensation. For people suffering serious injuries as the result of a construction accident, compensation can be used for future medical treatment, future surgeries, physical therapy and special accommodations for their home.
We want our clients to have peace of mind knowing they will not have to worry about money to meet their physical needs. Our personal injury attorneys also represent immediate family members who have lost loved ones in fatal construction accidents.
