Construction Site Accident Attorneys: Advocacy for Victims
The construction industry is dangerous and construction workers have to deal with many hazards and serious injuries while on the job. Each year, there are hundreds of thousands of construction workers who file workers’ compensation benefits claims due to personal injury and may need help from construction accident attorneys.
There is a wide variety of construction accident injuries they sustain, but the most common types of personal injuries necessitating medical attention include:
- Back injuries
- Fractures/Broken bones
- Knee injuries
- Shoulder injures
- Sprains/strains
- Traumatic brain injury
These personal injuries can cause fatalities or serious damages, including medical, emotional and financial damages. The law firm of Romanucci & Blandin has workers’ compensation and construction workers’ injury attorneys with the necessary skills and experience with the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) to help you with your workers’ compensation claim. Our construction accident case attorneys represent construction workers from a wide variety of industries and we help injured construction workers get the compensation they deserve from construction site accidents.

Construction worker accidents and third-party claims
Although injured workers are prohibited from suing their employers for workplace injuries because of workers’ compensation benefits laws, they still may file for a personal injury lawsuit against third parties - such as property owners, subcontractors and their insurance companies - who were responsible for their injury. This is called a “third-party cause of action.” If someone other than the employer was fully or partially responsible for the cause of your personal injury or that of your family member or loved one, you or they may be able to sue that third party with one of our construction accident attorneys and still file your workers’ compensation benefits claim.
By contacting a skilled construction worker injury and workers’ compensation attorney at Romanucci & Blandin early on, we can obtain the necessary information, relevant medical bills and expenses and records, and work through a free consultation to evaluate your potential claims.
