Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do first after a construction accident?

First, seek medical attention and ensure you are safe. Document what happened and gather any evidence you can. Then consult with a construction accidents attorney to review your rights and options.

Liability can involve the site owner, general contractor, equipment suppliers, and sometimes your employer. An attorney helps determine who should be part of a claim.

California typically allows about two years to file a personal injury claim, with shorter timelines sometimes applying to certain workers’ compensation and related claims.

While not required, having experienced legal guidance can protect your rights and maximize potential recovery. An attorney can manage communications with insurers and navigate complex laws.

You may recover medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and in some cases long-term impairment or future costs related to your injuries.

Workers’ compensation covers many job-related injuries, but it usually does not compensate for non-economic damages. A personal injury claim may pursue full damages from third parties.

Fault is determined through evidence such as safety records, witness statements, and site investigations. Experts may analyze how the site was managed and maintained.

Bring injury reports, photographs, medical records, wage information, and any correspondence with your employer or insurer. Also bring any questions you have for the attorney.

Case length varies with complexity; some matters settle quickly, while others require litigation and trial preparation. We aim for timely, thorough progress.

Discussing the case with your attorney will not automatically affect your employment. We handle communications carefully with your consent.
