Worksite & Construction Accidents

Seattle Construction Accident Attorneys

Construction workers confront dangerous and unsafe work conditions on a daily basis. If a forklift operator is negligent, if defective equipment is used or if any type of misconduct occurs, the results can be catastrophic. At The Gosanko Law Firm, we advocate for accident victims and their families following serious or fatal construction or worksite accidents in Washington.

Construction and Jobsite Injuries

Because workers often face more dangerous conditions when working on a construction site, in a warehouse or in a manufacturing plant, the resulting injuries from an accident are often far more severe than an office injury, for example. These accidents frequently result in catastrophic injuries, such as:

• Amputation of arms, legs, hands, fingers or toes
• Electrocution or electrical shock which may result in death
• Burns, such as electrical burns or chemical burns
• Brain injuries, including TBI or concussion
• Spinal cord injuries resulting in paralysis
• Other serious injuries, such as loss of vision or hearing, broken bones/fractures or other injuries

Third Party Liability in Jobsite Accident Claims

Job site accidents and construction injuries are often covered by state compensation programs which may or may not fully cover all expenses. However, if a third party - a supplier of materials, a subcontractor, a general contractor or the manufacturer of defective equipment - was involved, an injured worker may have a cause of action against that third party for their negligence or misconduct. Our personal injury lawyers handle complicated multi-party litigation and can help you recover compensation for all past and future wages, medical expenses, pain and suffering, and other expenses.
