Construction Site Accidents

Construction workers are the backbone of our society, and without construction workers, simply put, life as we know it would be entirely different. Construction workers are responsible for building our towers, stores, offices, and homes from the ground up, and our firm recognizes that we owe a great debt to construction workers in Tampa and throughout the country.

That being said, construction is a comparatively dangerous field of work, and when supervisors or other parties are negligent, construction sites can become all the more dangerous. Some of the most common causes and types of construction site accidents that our firm sees are as follows:

Structural collapses

Electrocutions

Trench cave-ins

Explosions

Multi-story falls

Trip/slip & fall accidents

Ladder accidents

Chemical burns

Injuries due to falling debris

Defective scaffolding accidents

The bottom line is that if you’ve been injured in a construction site accident, Merricks Law Group has your back. We know how hard you work, and we will not let a work-related injury take that away from you. Our Hillsborough County personal injury attorneys are ready to help.

Workers’ Compensation

When someone is injured on the job, they will often seek workers’ compensation benefits to help cover the cost of their medical bills and a portion of their lost wages. Workers’ compensation is a form of no-fault insurance that is designed to help employees financially until they are physically capable of returning to the workforce once again.

CALL

Third-Party Claims

Unfortunately, there are times where workers’ compensation benefits simply do not cover the entire cost of a work-related injury. When this happens, workers are entitled to file what is known as a third-party claim. In a third-party claim, our firm will seek to hold a liable third party (who is not your employer) accountable for your injury.

For example, we may file a claim against an independent contractor, a negligent product designer/manufacturer, a liable property owner, or any other third party that may be responsible for your injuries in an effort to recover the full compensation to which you are entitled.
