The construction industry is one of the most dangerous professional sectors, both for workers and non-employees who encounter construction sites. Workers’ compensation insurance and the civil justice system provide a means for those injured in construction accidents to seek fair compensation for medical bills, lost income, and other losses. 

Our Bethel Park construction accident lawyers fight for the immediate and long-term financial security of injured victims. The Berger and Green team will bring more than 40 years of experience to your claim or lawsuit. Our Bethel Park personal injury lawyers are experienced and reliable. Call our law firm today to receive a free initial consultation.

Our Bethel Park Construction Accident Lawyer Will Fight to Secure Compensation

Our legal team will tailor a case strategy specifically for you, making the process as easy as possible so you can focus on your health. While you recover, our team will represent you in any necessary:

Workers’ Compensation Claim

Injured construction workers are often eligible to receive compensation through workers’ compensation claims. These claims often come with challenges, though, which may include:

• Allegations that you were engaged in horseplay, impaired, or in any other state that might void insurance coverage
• Allegations that you intentionally inflicted an injury
• One or more lowball settlement offers
• Unnecessary delays in your case

The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania also makes clear that calculating your average weekly wage can be a complex process, with considerations like minimum and maximum adjustments coming into play. These complicating factors are all reasons why you should hire our attorneys to handle your case.

Third-Party Lawsuit

Our personal injury lawyers have handled thousands of cases throughout Pennsylvania, securing large settlements and verdicts along the way. Our team will evaluate the facts of the accident that led to your severe injuries, whether it involved a fall or another type of incident. We may advise taking legal action against a:

• Construction site owner
• General contractor
• Manufacturer or supplier of faulty equipment
• Motor vehicle driver involved in construction-related transportation accident
• Any other third party who caused an injury or wrongful death

We take a client-first approach, knowing that every case is unique and, therefore, requires a unique strategy. Call Berger and Green today for a free consultation. This is your chance to learn what sets our attorneys apart, what steps come next in your case, and how we can start helping you right away.

How Our Attorneys Manage Construction Site Accident Cases

We know you are hurting, and we can help you in several ways following your accident. Our responsibility varies based on each client’s unique circumstances, but our duties often include:

Identifying and Documenting Your Recoverable Losses

We refer to the harm that comes from a construction accident as “losses” or “damages,” depending on whether we are operating in the insurance world or legal space. We often document losses and damages from construction accidents using:

• Medical records, which detail the work-related injury and symptoms
• Medical bills, which show the cost of the client’s medical care
• Expert testimony, which can substantiate our valuation of pain and suffering, medical bills, and other losses
• Historical income records, which can establish the client’s average weekly wage and prove other professional losses

Diligent preparation is a habit among our Bethel Park construction accident attorneys. When we engage in settlement negotiations, we will have extensive evidence of your damages.

Incorporating All Evidence of Fault into Your Case

Our team will pursue all available evidence indicating that someone else’s negligence caused you harm. This is especially critical for third-party construction accident lawsuits and may also be relevant to a workers’ compensation claim.

Witness accounts, your own statements, and video footage are some types of evidence we frequently use in construction accident claims and lawsuits. 

Seeking a Fair Settlement

Our attorneys will negotiate with any insurance company, civil defense lawyer, or other party that can provide fair compensation to our clients. Negotiations often involve:

• Our attorneys presenting precise, detailed settlement demands
• The other side presenting their offer, if they elect to
• Our attorneys presenting any relevant evidence of fault and documentation of the client’s losses
• Each side exchanging arguments, and in many cases, reaching an agreement both sides find acceptable

Our priority is to ensure you receive the financial compensation you deserve. This may require filing a lawsuit or going to trial, and we are prepared to take these legal steps on behalf of our clients.

There will be much more to your construction accident case. Allow our attorneys to oversee every case detail, protect, and serve you as best we can.

Damages Our Lawyers Consider in Bethel Park Construction Accident Cases

Some damages (or losses) we often see in cases like yours are:

• Lost income and diminished earning capacity
• Medical expenses
• Pain and suffering
• The cost of mental health treatment
• Property damage expenses 

Each client is different, and we will listen to your story and investigate your losses, knowing they are independent of anybody else’s.
