If you are a worker who was injured in a construction accident, you may be eligible for more than just worker's compensation benefits.

- Falls from aerial buckets

- Falls from being struck by falling objects
- Falls into an unprotected pit
- Slipping on icy walkways
- Injuries due a lack of proper safety equipment
We represent clients on a contingent fee basis, which means that our fee is a percentage of your recovery. We do not get paid unless we are successful in winning your case or achieving a settlement.
