Our construction accident lawyers in Boston investigated a claim and found that poor maintenance caused a crane to drop a 12-ton load onto a worker, causing wrongful death. Acting on behalf of the family, we made a successful multi-million dollar claim.
Common Causes of Construction Accidents
Injuries that occur at construction sites are often the result of negligence by a contractor, property owner, sub-contractor, equipment manufacturer, or other parties. Accidents occur when people fail to follow state and federal regulations. This failure involves neglecting to provide adequate training, proper safety gear, or safe equipment on a jobsite.
Contractors circumvent safety regulations to try to save time and money. However, contractors that follow safety protocols tend to be the most successful. This is especially true for new companies. Construction companies that fail in their first two years in business have injury rates that are two times higher than companies that succeed.
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) calls construction "a high hazard industry." Construction workers perform tasks that expose them to a variety of dangers. OSHA reports that of the 4,779 private sector workers who died on the job in 2018, more than 1,000 were in construction. One in five workers who died on the job were construction workers. The main causes of construction worker deaths referred to as the "Fatal Four":
Falls
Being struck by an object
Electrocution
Being caught in or in between equipment.
These four types of accidents account for more than 58% of construction worker deaths in 2018. Smaller construction companies are at most at risk for serious injuries and work-related fatalities. Companies with less than 20 employees account for 75% of fatal falls. More than 90% of construction companies have less than 20 employees, illustrating that the construction trade is at high risk for injury and death at all times.
Types of Construction Accidents
Our attorneys are experienced with many different types of construction accidents, including those involving:
Scaffolding
Cranes
Faulty machinery
Falling debris
Ladders
OSHA violations
Electrical accidents
Railroad worker accidents (FELA claims)
Construction zone road accidents

Roofing accidents
Other construction falls, injuries and equipment failures
Common Construction Accident Injuries
Many injured construction workers are no longer able to work because of their debilitating injuries. The costs of recovery, long-term care, and the loss of financial support can take a toll on anyone's finances. Our construction accident attorneys will thoroughly investigate your case and explore all avenues for financial recovery. Construction site accidents can result in very serious injuries, such as:
Spinal cord injuries
Traumatic brain injuries
Massive internal injuries
Severed limbs
Disfigurement

Construction Accident Lawyers
Lakewood, Colorado Personal Injury Lawyer Serving Denver, Boulder, and Nearby Areas
Construction sites are some of the most dangerous places to work. Even if every precaution is being taken, there are multiple ways in which an accident and injury can occur. Inadequately secured scaffolding, heavy machinery and falling objects all pose serious threats to those in or around construction sites. Many times, construction accidents result from the negligence of employers, general contractors and property owners who don’t make an effort to ensure the work site is safe.
Proving negligence in these injury cases can be very difficult. You need an experienced construction accident attorney in your corner. For more than 60 years, the Frickey Law Firm has protected the rights of injury victims. Call us today at 303-237-7373 for a complimentary consultation. We serve Denver, Boulder, Lakewood and nearby communities in Colorado.
Common Types of Construction Accidents
You can walk through Denver, Boulder or Lakewood on any given day and see construction sites that are bustling with activity. While there is an inherent element of danger in every construction site, that doesn’t mean injuries should ever be expected or acceptable.
Unfortunately, many construction site accidents lead to injuries caused by:
Slip and falls
Motor vehicle accidents
Defective equipment
Electrocution
Being struck by an object
Structural collapse
Scaffold or ladder injuries
Burns
Barricade accidents
Falls from heights
These injuries can be devastating, and often prohibit workers from continuing in their construction careers. Full and fair compensation is crucial in these cases.
How Often Do Construction Accidents Occur?
Construction is one of the most dangerous industries in America. The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) states that there are over 150,000 construction site accident injuries each year.
Fatal construction accidents are less common than construction site injuries though they do occur at an alarming rate. There were 991 construction fatalities recorded in 2019.
If you were injured in a construction accident or lost a loved one on a construction site, know that you are not alone. Construction site safety remains a significant concern in today’s world. Not only can you pursue justice and compensation through a legal claim, but you might prevent future accidents by holding others accountable for their mistakes.
What People Say About Us!
"I am writing this letter in appreciation for your service during my case. Words cannot describe my appreciation for all of your help and attention. I will refer your service to any of my co-workers, friend and family. Again, thank you for all your help. I will remember you and your group." - Guadalupe M.
Compensation in Construction Accident Cases
Although workers’ compensation laws prevent you from filing a lawsuit against your employer, you may be able to file a claim against other parties who shared responsibility for your accident, and seek compensation above and beyond your work comp benefits, including:
Medical expense
Lost wages
Diminished earning potential
Pain and suffering
End of life costs in a wrongful death claim
Fighting for Working Coloradans
Third-Party Construction Accidents
Construction sites are hives of activity, involving a number of contractors, subcontractors, engineers, project managers, drivers and more. In many instances, injured parties settle for far less than they deserve because they don’t understand the complicated nature of determining liability in construction accidents.
It’s important to realize that you can receive workers’ compensation from your employer and still take legal action against a negligent third party for further damages. By thoroughly investigating every aspect of your injury and identifying every responsible party whose negligence played a role in your accident, our construction accident lawyers can effectively seek the maximum compensation to which you are rightfully entitled.
How Soon After a Construction Accident Should You Contact a Lawyer?
If you were injured at a construction site, contact a lawyer immediately. It can mean the difference between getting the compensation you deserve and coming away empty-handed.
Our attorneys offer free case evaluations where you can learn about your options. If we determine that you have a valid claim, we will protect your rights during negotiations and discussions with other parties. We will also work to gather the evidence before it is lost or destroyed.
Waiting to contact a lawyer can negatively affect your legal claim in several ways. You even run the risk of losing your right to file a lawsuit altogether.
Who Can Be Held Responsible For Your Construction Accident Injuries?
Many different people work at construction job sites. There are third-party contractors, property owners, and vendors. There are individuals driving trucks and operating heavy machinery. If you were injured because any of these people were negligent, you may have a claim against them.
You may also have a claim against people who weren’t on the job site at all. Engineers, architects, and equipment manufacturers are just a few of the outside parties that may be legally responsible for your injuries. Our attorneys will determine who you should sue based on the specifics of your accident.
Not Just Employees
In some cases, passersby can be injured near construction sites by being struck by falling objects, suffering a construction-related motor vehicle accident or accidentally wandering into a construction site with insufficient barriers and notices.
We Fight While You Heal.
Whether you work on a construction site or simply passed by one, you should expect that the environment is safe. Our experienced attorneys can help determine the parties responsible for your injuries and hold them accountable.
What Should You Bring With You When Meeting a Construction Accident Attorney?
It’s important to come prepared for your first meeting with our construction accident attorneys. Having the right paperwork and documentation on hand will make the meeting more efficient. It will allow us to get a better understanding of the situation right away
Here are some of the things you should try to bring with you:
This includes documents explaining your diagnosis and treatment plan, bills, dates you were admitted and released from the hospital, and a list of your current prescription medications.
Paperwork explaining your health insurance coverage and any claims that you have filed due to your injury can be helpful.
Proof of your dates missed from work, as well as paychecks or a W2, can demonstrate how your injury has impacted your ability to make a living.
The police report, occupational injury/ illness report, and worker’s compensation claim forms, if available, are often needed for your claim.
If you took pictures of the accident details, your injuries, or the hazardous condition at the construction site, bring them with you.
What Are Some Common Injuries Seen in Construction Accident Cases?
There are OSHA safety and health regulations for the construction industry. Employers must maintain working conditions that are free of known dangers. They must provide personal protective equipment and train workers about job hazards. When oversights occur, innocent employees can get seriously hurt or killed.
Some of the most common injuries seen in construction accident cases include:
Burns
Electrocution
Broken Bones
Eye Injuries
Back and Spine Injuries
Traumatic Brain Injuries
Repetitive Motion Injuries
Illnesses caused by chemical expoisure

If you or a loved one was hurt in an accident on a construction site—whether it occurred during work or when visiting or passing through the area—it would be wise to talk with a construction accident lawyer.
This guide explains how to hire the right construction accident lawyer so you can ensure your attorney is well-equipped to protect your rights throughout the legal process.

Tips for Finding the Best Construction Accident Lawyer
It can be hard to know where to start when you’re trying to find legal help after a construction accident. But, there are a few preliminary steps that can help you to move in the right direction.
Get Referrals From Your Network
If you or a loved one has ever worked with an attorney in the past—perhaps for another issue—that lawyer may have some advice on finding a construction accident attorney you can trust. You can also ask people in your broader network if they have had a positive experience with any lawyers in the field.
If your personal network doesn’t point you to any attorneys you can interview, try checking out the bar association in your area or other professional organizations of attorneys. They can often provide referrals to skilled individuals specializing in construction accident claims.
Ask About Fees and Payments
You’ll want to make sure you’re comfortable with how you’ll have to pay your lawyer prior to hiring them.
In the vast majority of situations, construction accident lawyers charge on a contingent fee basis which means their fees are conditioned upon you winning your case. If they help you get compensation, they receive a percentage of the amount you collect.
Specifically ask about who is responsible for actual costs, though, such as fees for expert witnesses, travel expenses, paperwork and court filing costs. In some situations, you have to pay these expenses out-of-pocket even if you don’t win, so it’s helpful to know up-front what you may need to pay for.
Confirm Your Attorney’s Experience With Construction Accident Cases
It’s vital to ensure your attorney not only has experience with accidents on worksites but also that your lawyer has handled cases similar to yours.
Your case will be governed under personal injury laws if you were visiting or passing by a construction site and got hurt. But if you were working at the time of your injury, you have to make your claim within your state workers’ compensation system.
Workers’ compensation laws and personal injury laws are two different areas of law and you should make sure your attorney has the knowledge needed to handle your specific kind of claim.

Why You Might Need a Construction Accident Lawyer
The right attorney will provide invaluable advice and support at every step of your claim. Here are just some of the ways a lawyer can advocate for and assist you.
Your Attorney Helps You Understand the Laws That Apply to Your Case
Your attorney will help you understand the difference between a workers’ compensation construction accident claim and a personal injury case and will assist in determining which laws apply in your situation.
With a workers’ compensation claim, your employer is responsible for covering injury costs regardless of negligence as long as your injuries arose out of your job performance. But, that is limited to damages for medical bills, lost wages and disability benefits—there’s no recovery for pain and suffering.
With a tort claim, you have to prove negligence or a breach of duty. Then, you can be paid for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering and emotional distress.
A construction accident lawyer will evaluate the specifics of your case so you’ll know what legal avenues to pursue.
Your Construction Accident Lawyer Helps You identify All Responsible Parties
In some situations, there are multiple people or companies that could be responsible for your injuries.
For example, if you were hurt at work, you could file a workers’ compensation claim to get benefits from your employer’s workers’ comp insurer, but could possibly also pursue a tort claim against other parties such as the manufacturer of equipment that harmed you.
By working with a construction accident lawyer to identify all possible defendants, you maximize the chances of getting the full amount of compensation available to you to cover all of your losses.
Your Attorney Helps You Decide Whether to Settle
Whether you are pursuing a workers’ compensation or an injury claim after your construction accident, you may have the option to resolve your case through a settlement. This means receiving a lump sum of money (or a set amount of money over time). Once you agree to accept this payment, you give up any further right to make additional damage claims.
Settling is an irrevocable choice, but it can help you to get your money more quickly without the stress of court proceedings. A construction accident lawyer negotiates on your behalf to maximize the chances for a fair settlement and advises you as to whether you should agree to a settlement offer so you aren’t left with regrets.
Your Lawyer Represents You During Litigation or a Hearing
If you do not settle, your claim is resolved in a workers’ compensation hearing or in civil court for a tort case. Both processes can be very complex.
You need to make sure you have the right paperwork and present your evidence in an allowable manner and in a compelling way. A construction accident lawyer guides you through every step of this process.

How to Interview a Construction Accident Lawyer
It’s important to interview any construction accident lawyer you’re considering working with. These interview tips help ensure you get the information you need to choose the best lawyer for your situation.
Talk to the person who will oversee your case: You always want to interview the construction accident lawyer who will specifically be handling your claim. This way, you can make sure you’re comfortable with that person and understand their experience.
Find out how big a role your lawyer will play: Will your attorney be handling most aspects of your claim themselves or will associates or paralegals do a lot of the detailed work? Find out the answer to this question.
Confirm you’re on the same page about communication: Determine if your lawyer listens to you, has a communication style that you are comfortable with and will keep you up-to-date throughout the process of resolving your claim.
