What To Do After a Construction Accident

If you’re one of the many injured construction workers in Florida, what you do next can greatly affect your construction accident claim or workers’ compensation claim. Follow these key steps:

Get Medical Attention

Seek medical care immediately. Even minor injuries need documentation tied to the job site accident.

Report the Incident

Tell your supervisor right away. A formal report is essential for filing a workers’ compensation claim and supporting any legal case.

Document the Scene

  • Take photos of injuries, equipment, and site conditions

  • Collect witness names and contacts

  • Write down what happened while it’s fresh

Stay Silent About Fault

Don’t admit blame or sign documents from the employer or insurer before speaking with an attorney. Your words can be used to deny your claim.

Call a Construction Accident Attorney

An experienced lawyer can protect injured construction workers, identify who is at fault, and pursue compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and other related costs—whether through a workers’ compensation claim, a personal injury lawsuit, or both.

If your construction site accident isn’t listed above, don’t assume you’re not eligible for compensation—call us to find out.

We provide a free, objective assessment of your construction injury claim, based on our decades of professional experience. Many construction accidents are handled by an experienced attorney, whether involving minor or severe injuries.

Did you know that several parties might be legally responsible for your injuries and could be required to compensate you?

We specialize in identifying all possible at-fault parties in your case who may be liable for damages.

There’s no risk to you or your loved ones, and the potential benefits of calling us today could be life-changing.

When a construction site accident occurs, a wide variety of individuals and businesses may be liable for any personal injuries, including:

  • Owners of a job site

  • Contractors and subcontracts

  • Insurance companies

  • Equipment manufacturers

  • Scaffolding companies

  • Engineers

  • Electricians

  • Architects

Construction accident cases involve a complex web of state safety regulations, OSHA standards, occupational safety laws, workers’ compensation procedures, and potentially liable parties.

Successfully pursuing a personal injury claim requires more than filing paperwork—it demands in-depth legal knowledge, prompt investigation of the construction site, and the ability to stand up to large insurance companies and corporate defendants.

Our legal team is equipped to handle every aspect of your case, including:

  • Investigating unsafe construction site conditions

  • Preserving critical evidence before it disappears

  • Identifying all liable parties (not just your employer)

  • Handling communication with insurers and contractors

  • Fighting back against claim denials and underpaid settlements

Whether your construction accident injuries are straightforward or catastrophic, our attorneys prepare each case with the precision and tenacity needed for trial.

Yes! Florida’s modified comparative fault rule means you can still recover compensation if you are 50% or less responsible for the construction accident. However, your recovery will be reduced by your percentage of fault. If you’re found to be 51% or more at fault, you may be barred from collecting damages.

Don’t let uncertainty or fear stop you from exploring your legal options. Even if you think you might share some blame, call us for a clear explanation of your rights.

You may still be eligible to recover compensation for lost wages, medical expenses, or pain and suffering through a personal injury lawsuit.

Insurance carriers don’t have your best interests in mind. They are focused on minimizing payouts—not helping you recover from construction injuries or pay your medical bills. Victims who go it alone often feel pressured to accept quick settlements that don’t begin to cover long-term medical expenses, lost wages, or future care.

We level the playing field. Our team knows how to challenge denials, negotiate with insurance adjusters, and—if necessary—present your construction accident case in front of a jury. We’re not afraid to take on big construction companies and their legal teams. You deserve a law firm that’s just as aggressive as they are.

Don’t allow insurance companies to dictate the value of your claim. Don’t let them intimidate you into surrendering your rights or accepting a settlement that falls short of what you are legally entitled to.

Our team offers a no-cost, no-obligation case evaluation, so reach out today without hesitation. Let us help you protect your rights, secure the compensation you deserve, and ensure that those responsible for your suffering are held accountable.

With our experience, expertise, and resources, we are fully equipped to take on property owners and their insurance companies effectively. Get a FREE consultation today with our expert construction accident lawyers.

According to the U.S. Department of Labor, the most frequently cited safety violations in construction include:

  • Fall Protection

  • Hazard Communication Standard

  • Respiratory

  • Scaffolding

  • Ladders

  • Control of Hazardous Energy (lockout/tagout)

  • Powered Industrial Trucks

  • Fall Protection – Training Requirements 

  • Eye and Face Protection

  • Machinery and Machine Guarding

These occupational safety violations are often linked directly to preventable construction accident injuries. When construction companies cut corners, it is the construction workers who pay the price.

Unsure If You Have a Case? Call Us Today.

You don’t have to figure this out on your own. If you were hurt in a construction accident, we’ll provide a free, honest, no-obligation evaluation of your personal injury claim. If we don’t think you need a lawyer, we’ll let you know. If we can help, we’ll get to work immediately, with no fees unless we win.

I was involved in a horrific bicycle accident and severely injured. When I decided to pursue my case legally it seemed everyone in the biking community all recommended Bill Bone. I’m now adding my name to that long list of recommendations. He and his legal, office, administrative and investigative staff, were extremely competent, thorough, professional and aggressively pursued my case. I was very satisfied with the final settlement and recommended his services unequivocally.
