Hawaii Construction Accident Lawyer
Fighting for Victims Injured on Construction Sites
Construction sites are filled with hazards for anyone who sets foot in the work area. They are among the most dangerous places to work in Hawaii and construction workers face threats to their health and safety daily in the course of earning a living.
Injuries can be serious, such as traumatic brain injuries and spinal cord injuries, leaving a victim partially or fully disabled. In the most tragic cases, injuries can be fatal. Whether injuries will allow victims to return to work in a matter of weeks or months or result in long-term loss of earning power or life-altering consequences, you deserve compensation for your damages.
Common construction accidents include:
- Falling from ladders, scaffolding or roofs
- Accidents involving forklifts, cranes or other heavy equipment
- Welding injuries
- Falling tools and objects
- Electrocution
Construction companies are required to carry workers' compensation coverage for their employees, but not all of them are in full compliance with the law. Moreover, workers’ comp does not always provide sufficient compensation, which is why pursuing a civil lawsuit when possible can allow victims to obtain a full recovery for:
- Past and future lost wages
- Past and future medical bills
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional injuries
- Other economic and non-economic losses
An experienced Hawaii construction accident attorney can consult with you about your case and determine what strategy has the greatest potential for obtaining the settlement you deserve.
