Construction Accidents

Chicago Construction Accident Lawyers

Every year there are thousands of construction accidents that cause serious injury and death. The site owners, architects, insurance companies and manufacturers of equipment can all be held responsible for inadequate safety provisions when a construction site accident occurs. In addition, the general contractor and all subcontractors are also required to provide a reasonably safe site, to warn of hazards, to hire careful employees, to coordinate job safety and to supervise safety compliance. In spite of all of these precautions, construction sites are still danger areas and, as a result, construction accidents happen frequently.

Construction site injuries can be severe and often career ending. Construction workers are usually well paid and have good benefits, and a loss in this income can often be devastating for the family. The Chicago construction accident lawyers of Willens Law Offices, P.C. have been fighting successfully for the rights of those who have been injured on construction job sites for many years. Even if the injured worker is at fault, or no one is at fault for the injury, a workers' compensation claim can, and often should be filed on behalf of the injured worker or his family. Construction companies and contractors must by law carry workers' compensation insurance, no matter what the size of the company.
