Construction Accidents Attorney Columbia, SC

Construction accidents can have serious consequences, including severe or life-threatening injuries or death, lost wages and substantial medical bills. Serious disabilities resulting from incidents at construction sites are not uncommon.

Victims: Construction Workers and Bystanders

Often, it is a worker that is injured, which may result in a workers' compensation claim. (While in most personal injury claims, establishing 'fault' is essential, workers' compensation claims simply require that one was injured on the job.) Just as often, though, a bystander at or near the construction site is injured or killed. Some of the most common causes of accidents on construction sites are scaffolding accidents, falls from heights, electric shock and falling items.

Accidents in the workplace happen often. If you or someone you know has been a victim of a construction site accident, you may be entitled to compensation. You may be entitled to payment for pain, injuries, lost wages or medical bills.

A personal injury lawyer can help you navigate the legal complexities of finding out if you have a claim. The key to determining whether you do have a claim lies in establishing 'fault' or negligence. If negligence is involved, the right attorney can help you to pursue recovery for your damages, including injuries.
