If you look around the Dallas area, you can see lots of new construction happening. Office buildings, apartment complexes, and houses seem to be going up everywhere. With all this construction volume going on, the risk of an accident occurring only increases. Although many types of accidents could potentially happen on a construction site, some are much more common. The most common construction accidents include:
Unfortunately, falls are all too common on construction sites. Additionally, fatal falls are the leading cause of work-related deaths among construction workers in the construction industry. If you have been injured from a fall on a construction site, contact a Bush & Bush Dallas slip and fall lawyer today.
Proving liability in construction accidents can sometimes be complicated. First, you should know that workers’ compensation can greatly affect how you can proceed with your claim. If your employer carries workers’ compensation coverage, you might not be able to file a lawsuit for a personal injury claim. However, private employers in Texas are not generally required to carry worker’s compensation insurance (TX DOI Workers’ Compensation Insurance Guide).
Liability for construction accidents can lie with different parties. These could include your employer, the property owner, contractors, or equipment manufacturers. There can also be many facets to a construction accident claim, including negligence, premises liability, unsafe working conditions, and other potential causes of action. Having an experienced construction accident lawyer who knows how to properly investigate and resolve these claims is crucial to getting fair compensation.
After a construction accident, seek medical attention immediately. Report the accident to your employer or site supervisor, gather witness statements, and document the scene with photos. Contact a Dallas construction accident lawyer to discuss your legal options.
You may be entitled to compensation for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and disability. In cases of gross negligence, you could also seek punitive damages. The construction accident lawyers from Bush & Bush Law Group can help ensure you receive the maximum compensation for your case.
Yes, if a third party (such as a contractor or equipment manufacturer) was responsible for the accident, you may be able to file a claim against them in addition to receiving workers’ compensation.
In Texas, the statute of limitations for filing a construction site injury claim is two years from the date of the accident. It’s essential to consult a construction site injury attorney in Dallas as soon as possible to ensure you meet this deadline.
The timeline varies depending on the complexity of the case and whether it goes to trial. While some cases settle within months, others may take longer if negotiations are unsuccessful or litigation is necessary.
In Texas, some employers are non-subscribers, meaning they don’t carry workers’ compensation insurance. If that’s the case, you may be able to file a personal injury lawsuit directly against your employer for negligence.
If a loved one was killed in a construction accident, you might be able to file a wrongful death lawsuit to seek compensation for funeral costs, lost income, and loss of companionship.
Construction accidents often result in serious injuries, with some even resulting in fatalities. You need an experienced team like Bush & Bush Law Group on your side to help protect your legal rights. Don’t let your employer or their insurance company try to settle your claim for too little compensation. Our construction accident lawyers can help with every aspect of your case, and we’ll fight diligently to make sure you get a full and fair recovery after your accident.
