Our legal team thoroughly values all actual damages in your construction accident to ensure maximum compensation. Your construction accident’s economic and intangible losses make up the actual damages we assess when valuing your claim. Depending on the severity of your injuries, the sum of your economic losses, long-term care needs, and the overall impact of injuries on daily and long-term life, our attorneys evaluate the following damages:
Other expenses derive from case specifics. It’s important to keep and provide documentation of all economic losses. Our team ensures their calculations when they are relevant to your injury claim. For example, travel time and expenses maintaining medical treatment plans, copays, and insurance deductibles can be recovered. In some instances, in-home childcare or daycare costs may be considered.
Construction sites are hotbeds for hazardous conditions that cause accidents with moderate to catastrophic injuries. Struck-by objects or falling objects are leading causes of construction site accidents. Those involving heavy equipment and machinery are responsible for 75 percent of construction struck-by fatalities. Other common types of construction accidents include the following:
A leading cause of fatal construction accidents is caught-in-between accidents, which occur when someone is pinned, squeezed, or crushed between two or more objects or heavy machines. Highway and freeway collisions also pose significant risks to construction road crews, especially in dark and poor weather conditions.
Construction sites are prone to accidents and injuries due to hazards, including uneven terrain, slick surfaces, power cords, tools, and other debris. Moving objects such as vehicles and machinery add to the risks. Operating from scaffolding, ladders, and other high surfaces poses a serious threat to sustaining dangerous falls. Common construction accident injuries include:
Hazardous materials are another real threat to construction workers. These include chemicals, fumes, dust, asbestos, silica, and other airborne particles that harm repository systems. Exposure can lead to various respiratory conditions, such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), silicosis, and respiratory cancers.
At Emmanuel Sheppard & Condon, we understand the financial, emotional, and life-long toll that injuries cause for our clients.
