Frequently Asked Questions About Construction Injury Claims

If you suffered an injury on a construction job site, you likely have many questions about your rights and options. Here we answer some of the most common questions we receive about pursuing construction injury claims:

What types of accidents typically lead to construction injury cases?

Construction sites contain numerous hazards that can cause catastrophic injuries. Common accidents leading to injury claims include falls from heights, electrocution, heavy machinery accidents, trench collapses, scaffolding failures, explosions, and more. Construction defect accidents caused by improper site preparation, negligent design, or failure to follow building codes may also result in injury claims.

Who is typically liable in construction injury cases?

Depending on the circumstances, multiple parties can share liability. This includes general contractors who control overall site safety, subcontractors responsible for specific jobs, equipment manufacturers, architects and engineers who designed defective plans, property owners, developers, and more. Our lawyers investigate to identify all potentially negligent parties.

Can I file a claim if I was partly at fault for the accident?

Yes, California recognizes comparative negligence. If multiple parties share blame, you can still recover compensation proportional to others’ responsibility. Experienced construction injury lawyers ensure you receive your maximum share.

What types of damages or compensation may be available?

You may recover damages like medical expenses, lost income, loss of future earnings, pain and suffering costs, expense reimbursements, and punitive damages in egregious cases. Wrongful death claimants can also sue for funeral costs, loss of companionship and consortium damages.

Will filing a claim impact on my workers’ compensation benefits?

No, workers compensation and injury claims are separate. You have every right to pursue third-party injury claims against negligent entities in addition to receiving workers’ compensation from your employer. We ensure the two processes coordinate.

How long do I have to file a construction site injury lawsuit?

California imposes strict statutes of limitations, typically 2 years from the accident date but sometimes shorter. It is imperative you contact a construction injury attorney right away before time limits expire.
