Aggressive Legal Representation for Injury Victims
Construction sites can be dangerous places. Despite strict safety regulations, heavy equipment, defective machinery and other potentially hazardous situations cause a large number of construction-related injuries and deaths each year. If you or someone you love has been injured in a construction accident, an experienced lawyer can help you pursue the compensation that is rightfully yours.
At Bretzmann & Aldridge, L.L.P., we protect the rights of the injured. Whether you have sustained a back injury or someone you care about suffered a wrongful death in a construction accident, we can help. With 60 years of combined legal experience, our lawyers serve clients in High Point, North Carolina, and the surrounding communities.
Knowledgeable Construction Accident Attorneys
Our firm has extensive experience in representing injured clients and families who have lost loved ones due to wrongful death caused by construction accidents. Common causes of injuries in these cases include:
- Ladder malfunction
- Scaffolding collapse
- Defective machinery
- Building collapse
- Nail gun misfiring
- Trench collapse
When you retain our services, we will thoroughly investigate the cause of the accident. After determining who we believe to be liable, we will fight to hold the responsible parties accountable for their negligence. If the incident was caused by a defective product, we will pursue a case against the appropriate designer, manufacturer or retailer.
Workers' Compensation Claims
If you are hurt in a construction accident while in the course of your employment, you are generally not allowed to sue your employer. However, you are entitled to seek workers' compensation benefits. We can help you understand your rights and file a claim. If a third party, such as a contractor, subcontractor or manufacturer, is responsible for the accident, we will investigate and pursue a third-party liability claim for further recovery in addition to workers' compensation.
