Filing a Third Party Construction Accident Claim

Personal Injury Lawyers in Mount ProspectConstruction jobs are considered one of the more hazardous occupations, where they are highly susceptible to injuries and fatalities. Typically, construction employees are covered by workers’ compensation that pays for their medical expenses and lost wages. However, the amount of recompense provided to the injured worker is often not enough to meet their daily expenses, especially if they are suffering permanent or temporary disability. As a result, many injured construction workers will file a third party construction accident claim to seek additional compensation.

Lawsuits and claims against third parties are a common occurrence when employees are injured in a construction site accident. Any construction worker suffering injuries caused by any party that does not maintain an employer-employee relationship with the victim likely has the legal right to file for additional compensation. As a result, many injured construction workers will hire Mount Prospect personal injury lawyers to file a claim or lawsuit for compensation.

Hiring a Personal Injury Attorney

Skilled personal injury attorneys who handle construction site accidents can evaluate claims to determine if there are additional factors contributing to the incident. The lawyer might be able to determine if malfunctioning or defective equipment was used during the accident on the site. If it can be determined that the equipment malfunctioned, the injured victim might have the right to file a claim against a product designer, manufacturer, distributor or retailer that supplied the employee or employer with the tool.

In addition, the personal injury lawyer might be able to determine that the tool or machinery was maintained or serviced improperly, which led to the accident. Through diligent investigation, the law firm can build a solid case for recompense to ensure the victim receives adequate funds to cover outgoing expenses over and above medical bills and lost wages covered by workers’ compensation. Recompense could include:

  • Funds for pain, suffering, disfigurement and grief
  • Compensation for funeral and burial costs in a wrongful death claim
  • Recompense for other intangible damages including mental anxiety, depression and emotional distress

I was very happy that we decided to hire these attorneys

"I was very happy that we decided to hire these attorneys to help me with a hit and run accident that left me in the hospital for three weeks. After getting the run around from the insurance company, these guys took care of getting all of my medical records and bills and were able to get the case settled in about 90 days. I will definitely recommend them to anyone who needs a top notch law firm in Chicago for a personal injury case. Very pleased with their service."
