Worker's Legs Crushed by Heavy Construction Equipment
Arizona construction accident attorneys often help injured workers who suffer terrible injuries that could leave them disabled for the rest of their lives. We find very often that these unfortunate situations are caused because of the negligence of another party. These workers, who suffer major injuries on the job, undergo tremendous financial hardship because they are unable to work for long periods of time and more often than not, the injured worker is the sole breadwinner for his family.
These injured construction workers and their families depend heavily on Arizona workers compensation as a source of restitution after an Arizona on-the-job accident. However, a skilled Phoenix construction accident lawyer will be able to analyze all aspects of a case and determine the negligent parties. A claim against a third party could be worth a lot more than workers comp.
Construction accident injuries can be devastating just as in the case of this worker whose legs were crushed by heavy machinery during roadwork, according to this news report. The worker was apparently run over by a transfer machine, which transfers asphalt dumped by trucks into a paving machine that puts it on the road. The federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration is investigating the incident.
