From a legal perspective, injuries that stem from construction accidents can be more complicated than other types of work injuries for a number of reasons, including:
- The number of potentially responsible parties. Construction sites are usually bustling with different crews, contractors, and individuals, and responsibility for accidents could fall on any of those parties as well as property owners, employers, and even equipment manufacturers. From the very start, this adds many layers of complication to injured victims’ claims, and many more chances to jeopardize your rights without more information.
- Unclear answers about workers’ compensation. Many workers believe that workers’ compensation will cover any injuries that take place at work, but what if your employer doesn’t carry workers’ compensation, your injuries aren’t covered, or your claim is very complicated? There are many ways to approach construction accident claims, and you might be surprised at some of the options that are available to you beyond workers’ comp.
