Worker Injured at Construction Site
Arizona construction accident attorneys understand that training is an extremely important part of any job. This is particularly true in the construction industry where workers deal with heavy equipment, machinery and material. Hundreds of construction workers in Phoenix and other cities are injured or killed because of falling objects. In most cases where workers are injured by falling objects, they suffer serious and debilitating injuries including head injuries, back and neck injuries, or even death.
A recent news report talks about a similar incident at a construction site where a worker was injured after 800 pounds of wood fell on top of him. The 25-year-old man who apparently worked for the construction company was putting together panels to pour a foundation in a basement when the walls collapsed. He was airlifted to a local hospital with serious injuries.
It is important for construction accident victims and their families to know and understand that a majority of construction accidents occur because of someone else's negligence or error. A worker injured at a construction site may be entitled to compensation from more than one source.
Workers in Arizona are usually covered by state workers compensation benefits. But these benefits are usually hardly enough to cover serious injuries or the death of a family's primary breadwinner. In such cases, experienced Arizona construction accident lawyers are able to investigate thoroughly and look for third parties that may have caused, or contributed to, the injuries and can be held liable.
If you or a loved one has been injured in a construction site accident, please do not settle for less. Don't sign any agreements or talk to other attorneys before you have discussed your case with an experienced Arizona construction accident lawyer who will look out for your interests and fight for your rights. You deserve fair compensation for your injuries and loss. Please call Breyer Law Offices, P.C. today for a free and comprehensive consultation.
