If you are injured on a construction site, you may not just be limited to a workers' compensation claim. Many clients come to The Law Offices of Michael P. Burakoff, P.A. in Morristown and Wayne, New Jersey with the expectation that a workers' compensation claim is the only way to recover damages for injuries sustained in a construction site accident. We thoroughly review the case to determine if there is a personal injury claim as well.
Third Party Claims
Construction sites have inherent dangers even in the safest environments. However, when there is no protection from malfunctioning or negligently operated equipment, sub-standard scaffolding, and improper supervision, accidents are more likely to happen. If you are injured as a result of the carelessness and negligence of a contractor or construction worker, we will advise you if you have a personal injury claim against a third party in addition to a workers' compensation claim against your employer. Third party claims can also be filed against the manufacturer of substandard tools and equipment or a subcontractor.
