Construction sites are dangerous places to work, and when an injury happens, help from an Altamonte Springs, FL work injury lawyer may be needed. Workers in this industry are often required to climb great heights, use powerful equipment and machines, or work on roadways where traffic accidents can unfold. Because of the risky nature of this type of work, construction workers are constantly vulnerable to sustaining serious injury on the job. If you are a construction worker who was part of a workplace injury accident, then contact our team at Presser Law, P.A. for further guidance. We want to help you get compensation for the injuries and damages you suffered. 

 

Types of Work Injuries

There are limitless safety risks that are present for construction workers at all times. Even if an employer has implemented safety protocols and offered protective gear, this may not be enough to prevent accidents. It is possible that an employer was being negligent when it came to safety which led to a worker being severely injured. If that is the case for you, please contact our team for assistance. An Altamonte Springs work injury lawyer can make sure that you receive the medical care you need and are fairly compensated so that no out of pocket expenses come from your personal finances. The Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) has concluded the main causes of construction site injuries are due to:

 

  • Trench collapses – if a trench falls through, the air supply can diminish, a worker may get stuck underneath, and they may sustain crushing injuries.
  • Falls from heights – a worker may fall from a piece of machinery, scaffolding, or building. They could also fall into a ditch or hole on the construction site.
  • Electric shock – construction workers have to work with power tools, generators, electrical wiring, and machinery that put them at risk of electrical burns. 
  • Repetitive motion injury – if someone has to perform the same tasks repeatedly overtime, the soft tissues and muscles can get damaged and worn down, causing pain and reducing mobility. 
  • Lack of protective gear – a construction worker must use hardhats, safety glasses, and other types of personal protective equipment. This gear should be worn at all times and employers must always provide them. 

 

Other Potential Dangers

As your Altamonte Springs work injury lawyer may explain, it is the duty of your employer to provide safety gear that is in good quality and fits appropriately. An employer who was negligent in regards to safety may be liable for how workers were injured in a workplace accident. A careless employer is another potential danger that can increase the chances of workers sustaining injuries such as burns, broken bones, electrocution, eye injury, toxic chemical exposure illness, neck/shoulder/back injury, traumatic head injury, knee and ankle injury, spinal cord damage, and more. Once we learn more about the accident and your injuries, we can advise what to do next. If you were hurt in the workplace, please contact our team at Presser Law, P.A. for a consultation.

Personal Injury Lawyer

Family, friends, health and time.  We value these things.  When someone or something takes these things from us, it hurts.  No one wakes up in the morning thinking they are going to be injured, but every day it happens.  Sometimes the injury is minor or temporary.  Other times, the injuries are more significant and permanent, or even result in the loss of someone we know.  In each of these instances, something is taken. It may be your health or it may be the health of a family member or friend.  Oftentimes, when health is taken, it is never fully restored.

 

Presser Law, P.A. fights for those who have been injured because those individuals deserve justice – they deserve the at-fault party taking responsibility for the damages they caused.

 

Personal injury is not limited to car crashes, or slip or trip and falls.  Injuries happen in more ways than you are probably aware and can include:

  • Open or closed head injuries
  • Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI)
  • Spinal cord injuries
  • Amputation or loss of body parts
  • Injuries requiring surgery to fix
  • Broken bones
  • Herniated discs
  • Torn ligaments
  • Disfigurements
  • Death

 

Where & How Personal Injuries May Occur

A personal injury can occur from a variety of different sources. Some causes of injuries are more common than others but negligent actions by others are one of the leading causes of personal injuries. When someone is injured as a result of a car accident due to another driver’s error in judgment, reckless driving, or simply not paying attention to other drivers on the road then a personal injury case should be opened against them. No one should have to suffer through injuries without any form of compensation or justice. Contact a personal injury lawyer from Presser Law, P.A. today to get your case started and to hold the guilty party accountable for their poor actions. Other injuries may come from:

 

Construction Accidents – These types of injuries could occur from poorly maintained machinery or poorly trained employees. These injuries can also be severe with long-lasting injuries or even fatalities.

 

Workplace Incidents – Workplace injuries could happen as a result of many different factors. A slip and fall at work, an injury that happens over time to hurt limbs or muscles, or more may occur depending on the job.

 

Premises Liability Injuries – Whoever is in charge of a property is responsible for keeping that property free from any obstructions or safety hazards that may cause injury.

 

Bicycle or Pedestrian Accidents – When a vehicle collides with a pedestrian or bicycle rider the injuries can be severe.

 

Motorcycle Accidents – Motorcycle riders can sometimes be hard to spot by other motorists. When another vehicle collides with a motorcycle the injuries could be severe and it is strongly advised to look into a possible case against the guilty party.

 

Truck Accidents – Truck accidents are similar to car accidents, but the biggest difference is the damage that a truck can inflict on other vehicles and people. A collision with a truck could cause significant injury.

 

Product Defects – Products made incorrectly or with improper warning labels may lead to consumers utilizing the product in the wrong way. If it was incorrectly manufactured then it may possess a hazard to its user.

 

Nursing Home Abuse – Nursing homes have been known to come up short in a variety of ways. They sometimes fail to administer the correct medicines, the right amount of water, or the adequate amount of exercise time to their residents. This negligence can cause injuries. When staff are improperly trained or lack a high standard of care then they may also inflict injuries on their residents when attempting to move them from a bed to a chair or other places.

 

Medical Malpractice – Those in the medical profession are required to meet a high standard of care. When they do not meet this high standard it means that they may have misdiagnosed a patient, botched a surgery, prescribed the wrong medicine doses, or for other reasons. Reach out to our firm today to learn more about medical malpractice and other personal injury types.

 

If you or someone you know has been injured by another party then compensation may be available. Items like doctor bills, medical visits, lost wages from work, therapy sessions, pain and suffering, property damage, and more may be available to your case.
