Construction Accidents

The Springfield construction accident lawyers at VanDerGinst Law, P.C. understand that an accident can happen even when safety precautions are a high priority. A governmental body, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, was organized to regulate and implement safety measures around construction sites. Even so, Springfield construction accidents still occur. Employees are prone to accidents like falls, being struck by machinery, and exposure to hazardous materials, among other things.

Liability for workplace safety generally rests with the construction contractor although there are exceptions. The chain of liability needs to be explored if a Springfield construction accident happens. A Springfield construction accident attorney would then pursue the case based on who is responsible for any injuries that have been sustained by you or a loved one.

If you or a loved one has suffered an injury, illness or death, that seems to have been someone else's fault, call VanDerGinst Law at 1-866-843-7367 or click here for a FREE online case evaluation. The initial consultation is free of charge. If we agree to handle your injury case, we will work on a contingency fee basis, which means we get paid for our services only if, and when, there is a money recovery for you. In many cases a lawsuit must be filed before an applicable expiration date, known as a statute of limitations. So please call right away to ensure that you do not waive your right to possible compensation.
