Construction sites are among the most dangerous work environments for employees. As a result, construction work injuries are common and often very serious. In fact, construction work accidents are three times more likely to result in a fatality than an accident in most other professions. Serious, crippling injuries are, unfortunately, very common at construction sites. If you were injured while working at a construction site and are now unable to work, you are entitled to workers’ compensation benefits.  The head of Lowenthal & Abrams, Injury Attorneys’ workers’ compensation team, James Mogul, is a certified expert in local workers’ compensation law. Contact our Philadelphia construction accident lawyer today to learn about your rights and to make certain you receive the benefits to which you are entitled.

Why Are Construction Sites So Dangerous?

If you work at a construction site, you already know about the danger. Many employers take shortcuts and do not offer the training, tools and safety features that they are required to provide. Unfortunately, falls are especially common on construction sites, due to lack of safety gear, old ladders, or inattentiveness. Falls can be especially deadly, or result in traumatic brain injuries, broken bones or paralysis. Other common injuries on construction sites include serious wounds, amputations, blindness, and harm to the back, neck and spinal cord. Each of these injuries can stop or limit your ability to work. If you suffered a construction accident while on the job, contact a Philadelphia attorney.

Know Your Rights!

Regardless of the safety features at a construction site, no matter why you were hurt, if you received an injury due to a construction site accident while at work, you are entitled to workers’ compensation benefits. In some cases, if you were injured on a construction site due to an issue with a tool or other product, you might also have a lawsuit against the tool manufacturer or vendor.
