Construction Accident Attorney in Birmingham

You should hire an attorney as soon as possible, and that's because these cases are usually time-sensitive; the earlier you seek legal representation, the better your chances of obtaining a favorable outcome. Keep in mind that as time goes by, evidence may get lost, witnesses may relocate, and the statute of limitations might catch up with your case. The sooner you contact a lawyer, the better. 

Construction sites that are not properly managed can cause various types of accidents. Examples include:

• Falls from ladders, scaffolds, or other elevated platforms.
• Electrocution due to contact with exposed electrical wires or malfunctioning equipment.
• Getting struck by falling objects or vehicles on construction sites.
• Getting trapped between heavy equipment, walls, or machinery.
• Defective or improperly maintained equipment. 
• Negligence in maintaining a safe work environment. 

Identifying the cause of the accident can help substantiate your claim, a crucial step in the legal process. That's one of the reasons you should seek legal representation.

A competent construction accident attorney will assess the details of your case to determine its strengths and potential for compensation. This is the whole point of filling out our free case evaluation form. Once they determine that you have a viable claim, they will collect essential evidence, identify the parties responsible for the accident, handle the paperwork and legal formalities involved in the case, and create a legal strategy to pursue the compensation you deserve. This often involves filing a claim with an insurance company or a lawsuit in court (if the liable party refuses to settle).

You shouldn't have to worry about the costs involved. At Morgan and Morgan, the fee for our legal services is free unless we win. If we win, we will deduct a small portion, usually between 30 to 40 percent, from the compensation you receive.

In a typical construction accident case, you may be able to hold employers, contractors, manufacturers, and even distributors liable for your injuries and losses. Liability might also fall on government agencies, making such cases particularly complex to navigate. That's why you should hire Morgan and Morgan, America's largest injury firm, to provide the legal firepower you need to fight this battle against the bigwigs in the construction industry.
