Construction accidents are unfortunately too familiar in South Texas. A roofer is working at a job site and steps on an unnailed board, causing him to plummet two floors down. The fall results in a severe injury, or even death. The high demand in homes due to the pandemic created greed in builders, general contractors, and independent contractors. It has paved the way for many construction workers to be overworked and cutting corners when it suited them. This ensured they maximized one thing, their pocket, while leaving so many injured victims with no compensation or recourse.
Many construction accident cases are very fact intensive. Whose responsibility was it to supervise the workers? Did the owner of the company enforce proper safety procedures? Was the proper safety equipment made available to their employees? Was there another company responsible for the negligent acts that caused injuries to the victim? Doing good work requires a thorough investigation into every construction accident case, from meeting with the clients and going over diagrams to even hiring private investigators or experts to do site inspections. Having the right attorney who understands the complexities involved ensures that your injuries don’t go unanswered.
