Most construction workers understand that when they suffer an injury in some type of work-related accident — whether it be an equipment-related accident, a trip-and-fall accident or an accident involving falling construction debris — they can collect workers' compensation benefits to cover lost wages, medical expenses and other expenses related to their construction accident injury. However, what many people do not realize is that although negligence claims cannot be brought against an employer following a work-related accident, claims can be brought against other negligent parties who caused or contributed to the construction site accident:

• Owners of job sites, general contractors and construction managers
• Owners of defective machinery or scaffolding
• Subcontractors who negligently operated a forklift or crane
• Contractors or subcontractors who failed to adhere to safety requirements
• Subcontractors responsible for falling objects, such as screws, pieces of sheet metal or other construction debris
• Other individuals or third parties responsible for construction accidents

Any amount of negligence on a construction site can amount to life-altering injuries and even death. Our attorneys at Arye, Lustig & Sassower meticulously investigate the accident and identify negligence claims (third party liability claims ) in order to maximize each client's financial recovery. We have helped electricians, carpenters, sheet-metal workers, and other members of the construction trades who have suffered career-ending injuries due to the negligence of other contractors, subcontractors and other negligent parties responsible for the construction site accident.
