Construction Site Accidents

Northern California Construction Site Accidents

Sacramento County Construction Injury Attorney

The controlled chaos of a construction site presents many opportunities for serious injury, with large numbers of people and multiple companies at work, heavy equipment and power tools in use, and truck traffic on and off the site. Indeed, construction workers (and even visitors to construction sites) suffer more work injuries and death than many other types of workers.

Construction site accidents can be avoided…but it takes commitment and effort on the part of the contractor and every company on the job site to ensure that safety comes first. Negligence of a subcontractor, a delivery truck driver, an electrician, or an equipment operator can have fatal results for people on other work crews.

If you've been injured on a construction site in Northern California, or a loved one died from a fall, electrocution, or some other type of construction accident, contact the Weinberg Law Firm in Roseville, California.

Bringing a Construction Site Accident Lawsuit

Attorney Joseph Weinberger has more than 20 years of experience bringing personal injury cases to court or negotiating with insurance companies for a fair settlement. Proving that an accident was caused by the negligence of third party — not by an employer's or a worker's negligence — is one of the critical parts of bringing a third-party injury claim on a job site.

A person who has suffered serious injury may not know the exact cause of the accident. Our law firm works with investigators and experts in the field to determine the cause and the extent of your injuries in cases involving:

• Back injuries from falls because safety harnesses were not provided or failed
• Amputation injuries from equipment that lacks guards or safety shut-offs
• Broken bones or wrongful death from falls from improperly constructed or defectively designed scaffolds
• Head injuries from objects falling from above
• Broken bones and internal injuries from being struck by a delivery truck
• Crushing injuries in excavation cave-ins or equipment rollovers
