The construction work site is a dangerous place. Each year, many construction workers are injured, disabled, or killed while on the job. These cases typically involve multiple companies (and their insurance companies), all attempting to shift blame to other parties or the injured worker. It can be very complicated to determine what party (or parties) caused your injuries and your claim will vary depending on which party was at fault.
If a co-worker or employer caused your injuries, you will have a Workers’ Compensation claim. However, if your injuries resulted from the actions of a third party (e.g., you sustained an injury from a defective machine, or perhaps from the actions of another company’s employee), then you have a direct claim against the responsible party. This type of legal matter is complicated and needs to be investigated by someone with the expertise to discern between a workers’ compensation claim against your employer and a personal injury claim against a third party. In these cases, the statute of limitations is short, which means you have a short amount of time in which to bring your claim or you will lose the right to bring it.
Every company involved in the accident, including your employer, will have an insurance company that is responsible for compensating you for your injuries. An insurance company, with their large number of claims adjusters and defense attorneys, will do everything they can to keep you from obtaining justice and reasonable compensation for your injuries. Insurance adjusters and defense attorneys are hired to protect the insurance company’s pocketbook, not yours. Don’t give them a statement because it will be used against you. You can co-operate without giving a statement. You could make a mistake telling your side of the story. Get plenty of pictures as soon as possible. Pictures reveal what happened.
