Denver Construction Accident Attorney

Construction Accidents

With any type of employment there is always a risk of injury, but when it involves a construction site the risk is greatly increased due to the inherent dangers in the construction business.   Although it is the responsibility of those in charge of the project to ensure all safety procedures are in place it has been found that negligence still happens, often with with horrendous results.  It can take just one moment of inattention or careless behavior by another to find you are seriously injured due to a slip and fall accident, electrocution, injuries due to heavy equipment accidents or toxic material spills.  If this has been the case, it is strongly advised that you take action to protect the legal rights for you and your family and consult with a Denver personal injury attorney.

In construction accident injury cases, Workers' Compensation usually provides the needed compensation for damages.  Even this state mandated compensation can fail to cover the actual costs of the injury accident.  As with any government agency, it is necessary to file the claims correctly with full documentation and failing to do so can lead to a denial of valid claims.  In many cases, a third party may be liable, such as in equipment failures, explosions or other incidents, and this should be fully evaluated by our legal team in order to determine all liable parties in the incident. 

Injuries from a construction accident can range from severe burns, head and back injuries to a tragic loss of life.  At Anderson, Hemmat & Levine, LLC we understand that such devastating accidents could have been prevented if proper care and attention was taken in providing the necessary safety precautions.          

Compensation for Your Construction Accident Injuries

You may be covered by workers' compensation but that does not mean there are no other options open in filing a construction accident injury claim.  Our lawyers are familiar with all the multiple sources that could also be held accountable for your injuries and parties may be named in your claim for compensation.   Determining liability is a vital matter in construction accident injury claims.   Following up on all the information, statements, witness accounts and other documentation relating to the accident is a key element in seeking compensation for damages that is commensurate with the injuries and other damages sustained.   We prepare each case as if it is going to trial, and do not accept settlements that don't reflect the actual damages and losses of the individual client.  Call our office and have your case evaluated.
