Everyone working on a construction site understands that the work is dangerous. However, that doesn't mean that someone shouldn't be held accountable when construction accidents happen. Our construction accident attorneys at the Chicago law firm of Steinberg, Burtker & Grossman will find out who is responsible and hold them accountable. We have been committed to providing results for victims of workplace injuries in Chicago for four decades now. You can be confident that we will work diligently to get those results for you.
The Challenge: Determining Who to Take Action Against
In workplace accident cases, our goal is to maximize compensation. In construction job site injury cases, however, accomplishing this goal is more challenging. Laws place more restrictions on who action can be taken against and when that action can be taken. We know these laws, and we know how to find opportunities to maximize compensation for construction accident victims.
- First of all, the general contractor is off limits.
- Subcontractors and co-contractors working on the same site may be the target of lawsuits in very limited situations.
- The manufacturers of defective construction equipment can also be held accountable, if their product caused or contributed to the accident.
Our method involves looking beyond the obvious in order to determine who to take action against in these challenging cases.
Maximizing Compensation in all Construction Accidents Claims
In addition to construction accidents in which workers are injured, the construction accident attorneys at our Chicago law firm handles cases involving injuries suffered by people passing by construction sites, including:
- Crane accidents
- Scaffolding accidents
