Construction Injuries We Handle

A construction site can have many hazards—some visible, others subtle—and even the most safety-conscious worker can get hurt because of a slip, a fall, faulty equipment, or another person’s mistake.

Common sources of construction injuries include falls from heights, being struck by falling objects, and accidents involving heavy machinery. Workers often face hazards like unstable scaffolding, unguarded edges, and malfunctioning equipment, which can lead to serious harm. Electrical shocks, exposure to harmful substances, and repetitive motion injuries are also frequent risks on construction sites. In many cases, these injuries result from a lack of proper safety training, inadequate protective gear, or failure to follow safety protocols. Addressing these issues is essential to creating a safer work environment for construction workers.

We have helped construction workers with injuries, including:

  • Falls from scaffolding, ladders, or roofs
  • Traumatic brain injuries from falling objects
  • Crush injuries from heavy materials or machinery
  • Repetitive stress injuries from lifting and bending
  • Amputations or severe lacerations from tools or equipment
  • Electrocution and burns from exposed wiring or explosions

Whether you were injured on a large commercial site or a smaller residential job, we know how to build a strong claim.

Our Springfield attorneys understand that construction site accidents can be complex and may involve several parties, including the employer, contractor, and subcontractors. Our skilled attorneys prepare these cases for mediation, settlement, and, when necessary, trial. We provide our clients with effective representation, and we fight to ensure that they receive the compensation they deserve for their injuries.

Personal Injury Claims

Some construction accidents involve more than just your employer. If your injury was caused by faulty equipment, a negligent subcontractor, or even unsafe property conditions, we may be able to help you file a third-party personal injury claim. These claims can supplement workers’ compensation claims or be the only compensation you receive, depending on the circumstances of your injury and your relationship to the people who own the construction site or control the people on it.

This kind of lawsuit could cover damages like:

  • Full lost wages
  • Future lost income
  • Pain and suffering
  • Out-of-pocket expenses

Not every construction injury in Springfield qualifies for a third-party claim, but if yours does, our lawyers could fight to make sure every responsible party is held accountable. That is one reason why clients trust us with complex, high-stakes cases.
