Legal Claims After a Construction Accident

Construction sites involve heavy machinery, elevated surfaces, and multiple contractors operating in the same space. According to the U.S Bureau of Labor Statistics, there were 29,400 employer-reported injuries and illnesses in 2023. When someone fails to meet safety standards, the consequences can be life-changing.

We work with clients who have suffered injuries due to:

  • Falls from scaffolding, ladders, or elevated platforms
  • Being struck by falling tools or materials
  • Collapsing structures or debris
  • Equipment malfunctions or machinery defects
  • Electrocution incidents
  • Exposure to hazardous materials

We investigate how your injury occurred and determine who can be held responsible. You may have a claim against:

  • Property owners who allow unsafe conditions
  • General contractors or subcontractors who fail to enforce safety rules
  • Manufacturers or distributors of faulty equipment
  • Third parties delivering materials or operating vehicles on-site

Our goal is to understand the full impact of your injury, including how it affects your health, your ability to work, and your daily life. We take time to build a personal relationship with every client, starting with understanding your specific circumstances.

What Losses Your Compensation Could Cover

Injuries from construction site incidents often come with high medical costs, lost income, and long-term effects on your quality of life. Through a legal claim, you may be able to recover:

  • Medical expenses for treatment, rehabilitation, and future care
  • Lost wages and reduced earning potential
  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional distress
  • Damage to personal property

We prioritize your physical and emotional recovery throughout your case. That means checking in on your health regularly, ensuring you are seeing the right medical providers, and recommending specialists or second opinions when needed.

We Will Take Legal Action After Your Construction Injury

An injury on a construction site can affect every aspect of your life: your health, your financial stability, and your future. When negligence by a property owner, contractor, equipment supplier, or other party causes that injury, a lawyer can help guide you through the legal process.

At the Law Office of Dwayne L. Brown, we assist by:

  • Investigating the circumstances of the accident
  • Identifying all responsible parties
  • Gathering medical records, witness statements, and other critical evidence
  • Consulting with industry experts to support your claim
  • Determining the full extent of your damages
  • Negotiating with insurance companies or legal representatives
  • Preparing your case for trial if a fair settlement is not offered

Our approach centers on your needs, not the lawyer’s. We take the time to understand how your injury has changed your life, and we work with you to pursue fair compensation. You are not just a case file. Your recovery, well-being, and future are our focus.

Deadline for Legal Action

Your time to pursue compensation following a construction accident is limited. Under AL Code § 6-2-38, you typically have two years to file a lawsuit for a personal injury. If you miss that deadline, you will lose your ability to negotiate a fair settlement. Delays will also affect our ability to collect evidence.

We advise contacting us as soon as you can so we can get started on your case.

Protect Your Health and Recovery

If you have been in an accident at a construction site in Selma, you should take the following actions to ensure your health and protect your rights to recovery:

  • Inform your foreman or the person in charge about the incident and request a copy of the accident report.
  • See a doctor as soon as possible. If you do not go to the hospital in an ambulance, see your primary care doctor as soon as possible. Any time between the accident and seeing the doctor can be used to question the connection between the accident and your injuries.
  • Follow your doctor’s treatment plan. Again, any deviation from the treatment plan can be used against your demands for compensation.
  • Collect what evidence you can from the accident scene. Take pictures of the area and your injuries. Make a note of any cameras that may have caught the event. Request contact and insurance information from the property owner or general contractor. Also, request contact information from any witnesses.
  • Avoid speaking with the insurance company until you speak with a lawyer first.
