Construction workers put themselves at risk of injury on the job every day. When workers perform their jobs from scaffolding, ladders, or roofs, they face even greater risks. A fall at a construction site can lead to severe, life-changing, or even fatal injuries. We are ready to hear from you. We understand!

Falls from scaffolding and ladders tend to occur where several contractors are on-site at the same time. Contractors may follow reasonable standards of safety. In some cases, a subcontractor's irresponsible behavior may create a hazard on the construction site. You may be able to file a claim against the party that is not your employer (a third-party claim)

The source of crane and scaffolding accidents may be any of the following:

Poorly erected scaffolding
Poorly secured scaffolding
Lack of adequate safety equipment (such as a harness) where applicable
Negligent maintenance of crane pulleys
Scaffolding erected near power lines or other hazards

Federal and state guidelines regulate how cranes and scaffolding are used at construction sites. The seriousness of the resulting injuries, which may include damage to the spinal cord or other injury requiring surgery, call for experienced legal representation.
