Construction Accidents
Have you been injured in a construction accident? Let us fight for you.
Construction sites can be dangerous places. On any given day, crews might be using heavy equipment or power tools, climbing on scaffolding, working around the edge of open pits, and dealing with other hazards that affect both workers and bystanders. It’s easy to understand why construction accidents happen.

- And more
You can rely on our firm for personalized attention and aggressive representation as we fight to secure maximum compensation for your injuries and suffering.
Help for Injured Bystanders
There are many opportunities for bystanders and other individuals who are not employees of the construction company to get injured on a construction site. Accidents may happen due to the negligence of the construction company in failing to follow proper safety protocols, failing to properly train workers, failing to post warning signs, etc. If this has happened to you, The Law Offices of Alejo Lugo & Associates can help you seek compensation through a personal injury claim. We will make sure you see the best doctors and help properly document and quantify all your injuries and damages. Then, we can negotiate a settlement or file a lawsuit on your behalf in order to secure full and fair compensation.
Help for Injured Workers
A workers’ compensation claim is the best course of action when a worker is at fault for their own construction site accident or when their employer is at fault. Workers’ compensation will provide certain benefits, including medical care. However, damages like pain and suffering will not be available.
When a worker is injured due to the negligence of a third party, such as the manufacturer of a defective tool, a motorist, a sloppy contractor, etc., it may be possible to file a personal injury claim against that third party. This will enable the worker to recover more types of damages than they could with a workers’ comp claim. Most importantly, damages for pain and suffering will be available.
At The Law Offices of Alejo Lugo & Associates, we can help injured workers understand their rights and options and provide top-quality legal representation when a personal injury claim is appropriate.
