Construction sites are dangerous places to work and often the site of very serious work related accidents or even death. There are numerous state and federal laws to protect people on construction sites. Unfortunately, those laws do not prevent all accidents. Almost every day people in Florida are injured on construction sites as a result of: someone else's negligence, faulty equipment, crane accidents, concrete accidents, falling objects, heavy lifting and electrical shock incidents. These accidents can result in back injuries, neck injuries, paralysis and other spinal cord injuries, fractures, loss of limb(s), head injuries, hand/arm injuries, shoulder injuries, leg/knee injuries, foot injuries, amputations and all too often death.
While a lot of construction site accidents in Florida may be workers' compensation accidents what many people do not know is they may have a claim against the negligent party in certain circumstances. The laws in this area are very complex and an attorney should be contacted immediately should you or one of your loved ones be involved in a construction accident. Can you sue your employer? Can you sue the general contractor, can you sue the negligent party. These are question you face and which we can answer.
