Construction Site Accident Liability

We have an established history of successfully defending construction site owners, construction managers, general contractors, prime contractors, subcontractors, design professionals, and suppliers in litigation involving accidents at both residential and commercial construction work sites resulting in personal injury or death.  Some of the lawsuits we have defended stem from accidents involving falls from high heights or scaffolding, electrocution, machinery accidents, trench collapses, fires and explosions, falling debris, slip and falls, contaminant exposure, heavy equipment operation, and Laidlow claims (intentional acts).  In defending these lawsuits, we aggressively pursue both downstream risk transfer opportunities and resist upstream risk transfer claims.
