Construction

Construction is among the most dangerous jobs available. Despite safety precautions put in place by OSHA, state boards of labor and the employers themselves, hundreds of workers are seriously injured or killed in construction accidents each year. At Gary S. Tucker & Associates, P.C., we represent construction workers and the loved ones of those who were injured or killed in construction accidents.

We can analyze the circumstances of your accident to determine whether your claim is limited to workers' compensation benefits, or if you have the right to seek a broader range of damages available in a personal injury lawsuit. In many cases, a suit for personal injury damages can be prepared and litigated even while worker's compensation benefits are being paid.

Our lawyers represent workers in construction, oil and gas, manufacturing, transportation, and other industries in workplace accident claims such as the following:

• Heavy equipment accidents involving cranes, forklifts, bulldozers, bucket trucks, or other fixed or mobile machinery
• Falls from heights such as roofs, ladders, or scaffolds
• Confined space accidents resulting in asphyxiation or drowning
• Electrocution, explosion, or fire
• Toxic exposure injuries due to chemical spills or releases
• Motor vehicle accidents in the course of employment

Many job injury claims involve severe and disabling injuries such as spinal cord damage, traumatic brain injury, or extensive burns. In workplace accident cases, we make sure that all elements of your present and future damages are thoroughly documented for compensation, including the expenses involved in future surgery, home care assistance, and rehabilitation therapy.

At Gary S. Tucker & Associates, P.C., we represent victims of industrial, construction, and other workplace accidents in personal injury and wrongful death claims.
