Construction Accidents

Alabama Construction Accident Lawyers

Every year, many people fall victim to injury, harm and even death through accidents on construction sites. A construction site is a dangerous place filled with safety hazards ranging from unstable scaffolding to heavy machinery. Crews of workers from different companies are thrown together doing several jobs at once in an environment that is often noisy and full of debris. Despite strict safety regulations, worker injuries still occur all too frequently.

If you have been injured in a construction accident, please contact a worker injury attorney at Hornsby, Watson, Hornsby, Blackwell & McKown for a free initial consultation and case evaluation. We represent clients who have been injured in all types of construction accidents, including those involving:

• Scaffolding
• Ladders
• Heavy machinery
• Power tools
• Falls

Injured workers often believe the only compensation they can receive after a workplace accident is workers' compensation. If your injury was caused by negligence of a third party, you may be able to file an additional personal injury claim and recover damages for your medical bills, pain and suffering, property damage, and more. Such negligent parties may include:

• the architect or engineering firm
• the manufacturer of dangerous or defective tools or machinery
• the general contractor or owner of the construction site
