Hiring a Construction Accident Lawyer- An Overview

When a worker gets injured in an accident at a construction site, he or she may have to face enormous medical and financial issues, following the accident. It is important for the injured worker to get in touch with a construction accident lawyer as soon as possible to make sure that he or she receives the rightful compensation.
How Can a Construction Accident Lawyer Help an Accident Victim?
A construction accident lawyer can help an accident victim in the following ways:
  • Can help the victim understand how to file a civil suit and under what legal theories, and with the worker’s compensation claim process, if applicable.
  • Can help the injured victim recover losses resulting from the accident at work.
  • Can reduce the amount of paperwork and hassle associated with the possible insurance, as well as legal claims.
  • Can help the victim get compensation to cover any losses incurred due to the accident, such as medical expenses, lost wages, and future medical needs.
  • Can help the family recover when their loved one is killed on a construction site, in what is called a wrongful death case.
When to Hire a Construction Accident Lawyer:
Deadline to file accident claims varies from state to state. Generally, it is always a good idea to hire a construction accident lawyer, within one to two weeks, after the accident. The victim may need to pay for medical bills and cover the lost wages, so the sooner the injured victim contacts an attorney the better.
The victim of a construction accident must note that if a representative of his or her employer or insurance company presents a settlement offer, he or she should refrain from signing it. The victim should consult with his or her attorney before signing any settlement offers. The settlement may not be in the injured workers best interest, especially if the worker has suffered more injuries or financial losses that aren’t accounted for in the settlement offer.
