  1. Construction Accidents And Personal Injury: Who Can Be Held Responsible?

  2. Without construction workers, our states and cities would never look as we know them today. A construction worker puts his or her health and life on the line to create architecture and infrastructure. So when construction accidents occur, the importance of establishing the responsible parties and helping the injured construction worker recover damages cannot be overestimated. In order to understand who can be held liable in a construction accident that involves injuries or deaths, it is important to let an experienced lawyer examine all the circumstances in your particular case

  4. NEGLIGENCE IN CONSTRUCTION ACCIDENTS In the vast majority of all construction site injuries and fatalities, negligence is the main factor. If your experienced construction accident attorney in California can prove that the defendant (the party you are suing) owed you a duty of care, was negligent in causing the accident, and that this breach of duty caused your injuries or harm, you may be entitled to recover compensation.

Under California’s premises liability law, the owner or occupier of the property owes a duty of care to other people, licensees, and invitees.

Created a dangerous condition or failed to prevent or repair/fix it through proper and regular maintenance and inspection of the property. Caused your injuries or harm as a result of the breach of duty, and the defendant’s negligent, reckless, or wrongful acts or omission to act was a significant factor in causing your injuries and damages. ❏ ❏ ❏

  8. DEFECTIVE PRODUCTS AT CONSTRUCTION SITES It is also not uncommon for construction workers and ordinary people to get injured due to defective products and faulty equipment. In these cases, the manufacturer, retailers, sellers, designers, and other parties involved in the chain of distribution may be held strictly liable for injuries or harm caused by a defective or faulty product.
