Massachusetts Construction Site Accident Claims

Contact a personal injury attorney at Kenney & Conley in Braintree for highly skilled representation in claims for injuries suffered at construction sites. Whether your job involved work on a new house in a South Shore suburb, highway construction in eastern Massachusetts, or major industrial or commercial development anywhere in Greater Boston, our experience with construction site accident cases can represent a major advantage in your claim for compensation.

While only a workers' compensation claim can be filed to obtain compensation for injuries suffered in the normal course of business, injuries that can be attributed to any potential defendant other than your employer can support a personal injury lawsuit. Because safety is the responsibility of everyone associated with a construction site, our lawyers will review the circumstances of the accident in order to determine whether the property owner, a materials supplier, the general contractor, or another subcontractor might be held accountable to you for your injuries.

Even well managed construction sites can be very dangerous, but the risks of construction work on any scale can be aggravated by such factors as aggressive construction schedules, poorly coordinated deliveries, poorly trained or inexperienced crews. The more complex the job the greater the precautions that must be taken to avoid severe or fatal injuries such as the following:

• Brain or head injuries
• Extensive burns from explosions, electrocution, or fire
• Back or neck injuries caused by falls or collisions
• Spinal cord damage resulting in paralysis
• Amputation
• Joint injuries to the shoulder, knee, or wrist
• Multiple fractures, including trauma to the pelvis or vertebrae

Our experience with the investigation and proof of liability and damages in construction accident cases will help maximize the value of your recovery while avoiding procedural and tactical mistakes.
