Common Construction Accidents in New Haven

Construction sites are full of potential hazards that can lead to severe injuries. Some of the most common causes of construction accidents in New Haven include:

Equipment Malfunctions
Construction sites rely on heavy machinery and power tools, and when they malfunction or are improperly maintained, they can cause serious injuries. A defect in equipment can lead to life-threatening accidents.
Exposure to Hazardous Substances
Construction workers may encounter dangerous substances like asbestos, lead paint, or toxic chemicals. Long-term exposure to these substances can result in respiratory issues, cancers, and other serious health problems.
OSHA Violations
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) sets strict safety standards for construction sites, but when employers or contractors ignore these regulations, accidents become more likely. Violations of OSHA standards can lead to serious injuries or fatalities.
Defective Tools and Equipment
Construction workers often rely on tools and equipment to complete their tasks. If these tools are defective or poorly maintained, they can cause injuries that affect your ability to return to work.
Employer/Property Owner Negligence
Accidents on construction sites can also be caused by employers or property owners who fail to maintain a safe work environment. Poor training, lack of safety gear, or improper site management can lead to devastating accidents.
Slip and Fall Accidents
Uneven surfaces, wet conditions, and debris are common on construction sites, leading to slip and fall accidents. These injuries can range from sprains and fractures to more serious injuries like head trauma or spinal cord damage.
Negligent Hiring
In some cases, accidents occur due to negligent hiring practices. If an employer hires unqualified or undertrained workers, it increases the risk of accidents that can cause severe injuries.

Experienced with Workers’ Compensation Claims in New Haven

Workers’ compensation is designed to help employees who are injured on the job by providing benefits such as medical coverage and compensation for lost wages. However, navigating the workers’ compensation system can be difficult, especially after a serious injury. Goff Law Group is here to help you manage this process and ensure you get the benefits you need. We have extensive experience handling workers’ compensation claims for construction workers, including:

Medical Expenses
We help ensure that all medical bills, including hospital visits, surgeries, medications, and long-term treatments, are covered by your workers' compensation.
Lost Wages
If your injury prevents you from working, we will help you seek compensation for lost wages, ensuring you can focus on recovery instead of financial worries.
Temporary and Permanent Disability
Construction injuries can result in temporary or permanent disabilities, which may affect your ability to work. We fight for the benefits that reflect the full impact of your disability, whether temporary or long-term.
Wrongful Death Benefits
If a loved one tragically dies due to a construction accident, we can help your family seek wrongful death benefits. These benefits can help cover funeral expenses, lost income, and emotional suffering caused by the loss of a loved one.
