The Many Ways to Recover Financial Compensation for Your PA Construction Accident Injuries
The following are the main ways to get compensation for your medical bills and other costs stemming from your construction accident injuries in Philadelphia:
- Workers’ Compensation: If your workers’ compensation claim is accepted, your financial recovery through the employee protection program may not be enough to cover your actual damages.
- Personal Injury: If a third party (besides a co-worker) was negligent, and you were injured as a result, you may be able to file a personal injury lawsuit in a civil court.
- Premises Liability: If an owner of the area or a construction manager fails to have the machinery and the area inspected, or fails to have work tools and other items secured, you may be able to file a personal injury suit via a premises liability claim.
- Product Liability: When the cause of your injury was a defective construction machine or tool, you may be able to recover financial losses from several parties, such as the retailer, wholesaler, or manufacturer/engineer.
- Wrongful Death: Although financial compensation can’t truly compensate you for the loss of someone you love in a tragic construction accident, you may be eligible to file a wrongful death claim in Pennsylvania on behalf of your spouse or other family member.
Philadelphia Construction Accident Attorneys Will Handle the Complex Legal Steps Involved in Your PA Personal Injury Case
Construction accident cases are often a lot more complex than other personal injury cases. One reason for the complexity is that there are so many different people who could be liable for a client’s injuries or for a loved one’s death. The liable party could be a manufacturer of a failed construction vehicle, the construction area manager, the property owner, or even a co-worker.
There are also a lot of extra steps involved in Pennsylvania construction accident cases, including looking at workers’ compensation options, conducting witness interviews, investigating the area, searching through inspection records, filing lots of extra paperwork, and more.
