Hawaii Construction Accident Lawyer

Have you been hurt in a construction accident?

Construction sites are filled with hazards for anyone who sets foot in the work area. They are among the most dangerous places to work in Hawaii and construction workers face threats to their health and safety daily in the course of earning a living. Injuries can be serious, including traumatic brain injuries and spinal cord injuries, leaving a victim partially or fully disabled for life. In the most tragic cases, a grieving family is left to carry on after the death of the victim. Whether your injury will allow you to return to work in a matter of weeks or months, or if it will result in a long-term loss of earning power, you deserve fair compensation for your lost wages, as well as for your pain and suffering.

Common construction accidents include:

• Falling from ladders, scaffolding or roofs
• Accidents involving forklifts, cranes or other heavy equipment
• Welding injuries
• Falling tools
• Electrocution

Construction companies are required to carry workers' compensation coverage for their employees, but not all of them are in full compliance with the law. Moreover, your claim may not be covered by workers' comp, depending on the circumstances of your accident. An experienced Hawaii personal injury lawyer can consult with you about your case and determine what strategy has the greatest potential for obtaining the settlement you deserve.
