The aftermath of a construction accident can be overwhelming and stressful, but with the right legal support from our injury attorney, you can recover the maximum compensation you deserve to help you recover and move forward.

I’m injured on a construction site. Do I need an attorney?

Yes, having a good injury attorney on your side can greatly impact the outcome of your compensation.

On average, individuals who retained a construction accident attorney often receive 4 to 5 times more compensation than those who didn’t.
Moreover, having representation from an attorney increases your chances of receiving a fair settlement.

Falls are responsible for a staggering number of fatalities in the construction industry, accounting for a third of all deaths in this sector.

Additionally, the rate of nonfatal fall-related injuries among full-time construction workers is significantly higher than the overall average across all private industries, with 31.4 injuries per 10,000 workers in construction compared to 21.7 per 10,000 workers in other industries.

If you’ve been hurt on a construction site, you have rights.

We will work tirelessly to ensure you receive the maximum compensation for your injuries.

What are my legal options after a construction injury?

In the state of Alabama, the law allows individuals who have been injured in a construction accident to seek damages from the party or parties who are responsible for the accident.

This could include the construction company, a contractor, a subcontractor or even the property owner.

In order to succeed in a personal injury claim or lawsuit, the injured party must be able to prove that the other party was negligent or otherwise at fault for the accident. This may involve showing that the other party violated safety regulations or failed to maintain a safe work environment.

What is the statute of limitations for filing a personal injury claim in Alabama?

If you’re considering taking legal action after a construction accident that resulted in personal injury, it’s important to be aware of the time limits for filing a claim or lawsuit.

In Alabama, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims is generally 2 years from the date of the accident.

This means that you will have 2 years from the date of the accident to file a claim or lawsuit in court.

If you fail to do so within this time frame, you may be barred from recovering any damages.

6-Figure Settlement
Scaffolding Accident

One such case involved a client who was involved in a devastating construction accident in Walker County, Alabama. The client suffered from multiple orthopedic injuries, including complete breaks in both ankles, after falling from a collapsing scaffold.

Bernard’s determination and expertise paid off, as the client not only received full policy limits from the homeowner’s insurance policy, but also a substantial 6-figure settlement from the workers’ compensation carrier.

This is just one example of Bernard’s unwavering commitment to his clients and his track record of winning results.
