Construction Accidents

Due to the recent building boom, the number of workers injured at construction and building sites has increased drastically. Florida and Federal Law impose a number of codes and regulations on construction companies, general and sub-contractors, to prevent workers from becoming injured. Unfortunately in many situations, either through negligence or intent, construction companies disregard or ignore the codes and OSHA rules they are required to follow, resulting in workers being injured.

For over 20 years, we at the Law Offices of Joseph I. Lipsky, P.A. have helped the injured victims of accidents at construction sites put the pieces of their lives back together following job site accidents caused by scaffolding accident, crane collapse accidents, floor defect falls, carbon monoxide poisoning and car and truck accidents which happen at a job site.

While injured construction worker’s rights may be limited due to the immunities provided by Florida Worker’s Compensation Laws, there is often an ability to seek compensation due to the negligence of other parties, including different contractors and architects.

Whether you or a loved one suffer construction site injury involving your neck or back, broken bones, scarring, paralysis, amputation, or in the worst scenario, death, we are here to help you with these life altering injuries. We recognize and appreciate our clients’ goals and needs, and we will through, settlement or trial, if necessary, do everything necessary to protect your rights and get you the compensation you need and deserve.
