Key steps include identifying liable parties, collecting evidence, assessing damages, negotiating with insurers, and pursuing litigation when necessary.
This glossary explains common terms used in California construction accident cases.
Liability refers to the party or parties responsible for causing your injuries, which can include employers, site owners, contractors, or equipment manufacturers.
Comparative negligence describes how fault is allocated among parties, which can affect the amount of compensation you may recover.
A third-party claim is a case against someone other than your employer or the workers’ compensation system, such as a general contractor or equipment manufacturer.
Damages cover medical bills, rehabilitation, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other losses caused by the accident.
In California, construction accident cases may involve workers’ compensation, third-party claims, or a combination. We review your situation to determine the best path.
If fault is obvious and you have solid medical records, a straightforward settlement or limited negotiations may be appropriate.
For minor injuries or straightforward cases, faster resolution can often be reached without a lengthy lawsuit.
Taking a broad view allows us to pursue all eligible compensation, including medical, lost income, and non-economic damages.
We examine all potential damages and document evidence to support a strong settlement or trial result.
