Construction Site Safety & Accident Prevention

Working in the construction industry is inherently dangerous. Companies must comply with regulations set forth by the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) to keep construction sites as reasonably safe as possible. Violation of OSHA regulations, or any failure to take reasonable steps to prevent an accident, can constitute negligence.

Determining Liability in Construction Accidents

Numerous parties may be liable for injuries at a construction site, including the property owner, general contractor, and manufacturers of equipment, delivery companies, architects and engineers, and construction management companies. The general contractor is almost always responsible for overseeing job safety on the construction project. Determining liability of subcontractors and others can be a complex process, depending on how the accident occurred. At Estey & Bomberger, our Oakland construction accident attorneys consult with experts and investigators to determine what parties are liable for injuries or wrongful death at an Oakland construction site accident.

Construction Accident Litigation

Victims of construction accidents may be eligible to receive compensation for their injuries, including medical bills, lost earnings, pain and suffering and other accident-related expenses. Although employees may be eligible for compensation for medical bills and lost wages from workers’ compensation, additional parties may be liable and financially responsible for injuries in an accident. An experienced attorney can help you obtain maximum compensation from all responsible parties.
