Injured in a Construction Accident? DiSandro & Malloy Can Help

Construction sites are dangerous places where accidents easily happen. Unfortunately, many of the accidents involving construction workers result in serious, life-changing injuries or death.

The United States Department of Labor Statistics’ 2009 survey of fatal work injuries shows a total of 4,340 fatal work injuries. Of that total, 816 were due to construction accidents with 1 out of every 4 being construction laborers. Although construction is a hazardous occupation, negligent managers, general contractors or co-workers and faulty equipment leave otherwise safe workers seriously injured, out of work, or dead.

There are many commonly reported types of construction accidents including:

  • Unsafe working conditions
  • Falls from construction sites
  • Electrocution/burns
  • Vehicular accidents
  • Faulty equipment/machinery
    • Crane
    • Scaffold
    • Trench
  • Falling debris
  • Getting caught between machinery
  • Exposure to hazardous material/chemicals
  • Refinery explosions
  • Fires
  • Floods

While this is only a few of the possible circumstances of workplace accidents, they all may cause serious injuries or death. Typical injuries include neck injuries, back injuries, head and brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, and amputation. Those who have been injured and the family of those who have died because of someone else’s negligence or faulty construction equipment need an experienced construction accident attorney to fight for the compensation they deserve.
