Injured In A Construction Accident? Contact A South Dakota Lawyer
There are approximately 10 million people employed in construction in the United States. It is an industry that provides steady employment for relatively high pay. However, construction sites are notoriously hazardous, and injuries are common.
At King Law Firm, P.C., our construction accident attorneys have several years of experience fighting for compensation for injury victims in Sioux Falls. If you’ve been injured in a construction accident, the importance of having legal representation from an experienced, local construction accident attorney cannot be overstated.
The Most Common Construction Site Accidents
There are numerous hazards on any construction site. Moving vehicles present a significant risk as well as working from heights. Some of the most common accidents we see include:
- Falls from scaffolding and ladders
- Vehicle collisions
- Accidents involving explosives
- Objects falling from a height
- Forklift accidents
- Trench accidents
- Electrocution
- Exposure to hazardous materials
- Elevator shaft accidents
All of these accidents have the potential to result in serious injuries. You could be entitled to compensation if you have suffered any of the following injuries after a construction accident:
- Broken bones
- Burns
- Cuts and lacerations
- Crushing injuries
- Eye injuries
- Head injuries
- Spinal injuries
You may also be able to claim for psychological injuries such as Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
If you have been injured, the most important thing is to seek immediate medical attention. After that, you can start thinking about your legal options. Our attorneys can assess your case in detail and walk you through the steps of a workers’ compensation or personal injury claim (or both).
