Our Lawyer Knows Which Columbus Construction Accident Cases Support a Lawsuit

Construction sites have many inherent hazards that could cause serious or fatal injuries to workers, subcontractors, delivery personnel, or guests. This is why the industry is heavily regulated by safety requirements, and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) closely monitors worker rights and safety.

Columbus has been undergoing major development over the last few years, so it is no surprise that there is ongoing refurbishment, construction, and demolition across the area. A few of these projects include:

  • A $50 million investment in Synovus Park, the future home of the Atlanta Braves AA-affiliate
  • Many new apartment and mixed-use buildings
  • Construction of the Judicial Center on 10th Street

Construction site injuries could happen at any stage of demolition or construction, especially when safety protocols are lax, the workers do not have adequate safety training, or the proper personal protective equipment (PPE) is not provided.

Some of the common ways injuries occur on construction sites include:

  • Falls: Falls from elevated heights, trips, slips, and falls into holes or ditches are all common on construction sites. Falls are among the most commonly reported construction site incidents.
  • Ladder and Scaffolding Injuries: Falls from ladders and scaffolding, as well as related injuries, are extremely common on construction sites and can cause serious and fatal injuries.
  • Dropped Items: Dropped or tossed construction debris or other items often hit those working below, causing significant injuries.
  • Trench Collapse: Trench work is extremely dangerous, especially when safety protocols and best practices are ignored.
  • Forklift Injuries: Forklifts can cause serious accidents and injuries when operated carelessly or recklessly.
  • Power Tools: Power tools commonly cause injuries, especially when their safety mechanisms are disabled or have significant defects but are still in use.
  • Electric Shock: The risks of burns and electric shock injuries are increased for some workers on construction sites.
  • Pinned Against/Between: Sometimes, building materials or other items are haphazardly stacked and can cause injuries. Construction sites have many moving parts, making it possible to be pinned against or stuck between numerous items.

When a Columbus construction site accident occurs, and there are serious injuries, the worker will likely receive care at Piedmont Columbus Regional-Midtown. The Georgia Trauma Foundation categorizes this facility as the top-ranked trauma center in Columbus. It is a Level II trauma center.

Other workers who do not require extensive trauma care might go to the nearest hospital, possibly St. Francis-Emory Healthcare or Piedmont Columbus Regional-Northside. These facilities have emergency departments capable of stabilizing patients for transfer or treating many types of injuries.

What Damages Will a Columbus Construction Accident Lawyer Pursue for You?

The recoverable damages in a Columbus construction accident case will depend on your unique injuries and financial losses. Some examples of commonly recoverable damages in similar compensation claims include:

  • Medical expenses
  • Future healthcare and support expenses
  • Lost income from time missed working
  • Reduced earning ability if you cannot return to work
  • Damaged property replacement
  • Related expenses, such as updating your home for wheelchair accessibility
  • Pain and suffering damages

If you suffered injuries on a Columbus construction site, act quickly to recover damages. While O.C.G.A. § 9-3-33 provides a two-year statute of limitations to begin a lawsuit based on personal injury or wrongful death, evidence is likely to disappear if you delay your investigation. You want our legal team on your side, working on your personal injury lawsuit as soon as possible after your injuries occur.
