Construction Injuries

Construction sites are rapidly changing environments, with many workers completing dangerous tasks. As a result of these challenging circumstances, construction accidents injure or kill thousands of workers each year.

Regulations, specifications, inspection requirements and job safety programs all do their best to keep the work environment as safe as possible, but accidents still happen. These safety precautions can also be ignored or only loosely followed due to tight budgets, strict schedules or insufficiently trained people.

Our construction accident and personal injury attorneys at BB&L in Hermosa Beach, CA have the experience to handle matters including:

• Chemical exposure or accidental electrocution
• Explosions and fires
• Falls and scaffolding failures
• Workers or pedestrians struck by falling objects
• Building collapse (due to defective construction)
• Other accidents caused by defective construction equipment

If you or a loved one has been injured at a construction site, don’t assume that you can only recover workers compensation. It is worth investigating to see if third party companies other than your employer were at fault. BB&L’s construction accident attorneys have the necessary experience and knowledge about safety standards to know who is at fault and responsible.

After a bad construction injury, no amount of money can replace your loss or adequately compensate you, but our experienced injury attorneys Albro Lundy,  Evan Koch and Stephen Semos can help you hold the responsible party (or parties) accountable and relieve the financial burden of your loss.

The litigation team at Baker, Burton & Lundy has experience handling difficult construction injury cases. We have been able to recover for clients who:

• Fell through roofs suffering brain damage and broken limbs
• Lost fingers, hands, arms and legs
• Suffered permanent brain and lung damage from long-term chemical exposure
• Suffered vision loss from acid exposure
• Suffered burn injuries

Once we’ve accepted your case, we will do everything in our power to build the most powerful and persuasive case possible against the negligent party or parties. Responsible parties may include architects, engineers, contractors, subcontractors, property owners, equipment manufacturers and service providers.

Part of our thorough trial preparation involves our attorneys working closely with you to develop a specific understanding of the accident and the impact it’s had upon your life. We will also take pictures, interview witnesses and gather evidence. We consult with some of the best expert witnesses to get qualified and persuasive opinions about the nature of the accident and who was at fault.
