Construction Liability

Construction liability law encompasses cases involving personal injury and wrongful death resulting from construction accidents. It also involves the regulations, safety standards, and laws governing the construction industry, with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) serving as the primary regulatory body for construction site safety.

Construction accidents can range from minor incidents to catastrophic events, sometimes resulting in fatalities. While these accidents may occur on a client’s construction site, they often stem from the negligence of others, such as faulty equipment, defective products, inadequate safety training, or reckless co-workers. Defending these cases necessitates prompt and thorough investigations.

In some instances, construction workers are limited to workers’ compensation for their injuries. However, they may also pursue damages from parties partially or entirely responsible for the accident, such as negligent third parties or product manufacturers, based on theories of negligence and product liability.

Numerous parties may be held liable for construction accidents, including the construction site owner, architects, engineers, contractors, construction managers, and manufacturers of construction machinery or equipment.
