My husband has been severely injured in a construction accident. I have reasons to believe that it happened because of the owner’s negligence. Would we be eligible for compensation?

Seek legal counsel from attorneys who specialize in Workman's Comp, they will be your best source for an answer. Good Luck

Is it safe to assume he was working at the site when this happened? If so,


Has he filed for workers comp?


Was he compliant with the safety regulations- required by the contractor to be onsite? (ex. hardhat, steel toed boots, vest, etc...)-


Has his company sent HR or anyone to talk to him since the accident?


Lots of factors...and a lawyer would be more appropriate..

Construction sites should be very carefully monitored and maintained according to state and federal regulations to ensure that workers are safe and free from hazardous situations. If your loved one has been injured on the job because of the site owner’s negligence, you may be eligible for compensation for your injuries. Contact us today for a free consultation.
