Heavy Equipment Accidents

Greater Boston Crane Accidents - Heavy Equipment Injuries

Given the size and power of today's heavy construction equipment, it is perhaps surprising that disabling or fatal accidents do not occur more frequently than they do. Construction remains one of the most dangerous occupations in the American economy, and negligent operation of heavy equipment can be a major causal factor in the most severe jobsite injuries. To learn how our experience with the litigation of personal injury and wrongful death claims in construction and warehouse accident cases can help you recover full compensation, contact the Massachusetts heavy equipment accident attorneys at Kenney & Conley in Braintree.

Our analysis of your legal rights in a construction accident case doesn't stop with the operator of the machine that caused the injury. We make a careful investigation of every aspect of the case to make sure that all prospective defendants are identified and evaluated in terms of potential liability. It is sometimes revealed that the operator of a particular piece of heavy equipment is not as responsible for the accident as the developer or general contractor who planned and sequenced the work--one study has shown that 60 percent of fatal construction accidents could have been avoided with better project site planning.

At Kenney & Conley, our sophisticated approach to personal injury litigation related to heavy equipment accidents on jobsites or loading docks anywhere in Massachusetts can make the decisive difference in cases involving:

• Cranes
• Forklifts, scissor lifts, or boom lifts
• Bucket loaders, excavators, or graders
• Snowplows
• High lift bucket trucks or lulls
• Bobcats or backhoes

Because of the severe injuries that often characterize heavy equipment accidents, we work closely with both treating physicians and forensic experts in order to support damages claims with solid documentation and persuasive evidence.
