Claims Against the General Contractor and Property Owner

Many injured construction workers believe the only claim they can file is a workers' compensation claim, which may not compensate them for the full dollar amount of their damages. However, when a construction worker is injured on the job site, the general contractor and property owner may be strictly liable for the injuries sustained. This means that the injured worker may be able to file a claim for compensation directly against the general contractor and/or the property owner. Our firm helps injured construction workers file claims against general contractors and property owners. Construction accident situations can be complicated. To determine the proper negligent party or parties, a member of our firm can review your case and help you understand what may be possible.
