Minneapolis Construction Injury Lawyer

Construction accidents are often complex to investigate because there are multiple employers on the site — each with their own employees and each with their own responsibilities. You need an experienced Minnesota Construction Injury Lawyer to protect your rights. Call Terry, Slane & Ruohonen at 612-362-0000 for expert, aggressive representation.

If you are injured while working at a construction site you may have the right to pursue several different claims. First, if you are injured in the course of your employment, you may be entitled to receive worker’s compensation benefits. This will help pay for medical bills and lost time from work, but will not compensate you for pain and suffering. If the accident is caused by some third party other than your employer, you may have separate rights to bring a claim against that company. Those claims may overlap and the issues can quickly become very complex.

Some common workplace injuries that may qualify for these types of claims include falling objects, welding accidents, electrocutions, falls from significant heights, and scaffolding collapses. Workplaces are usually subject to OSHA regulations that govern safety requirements for the workplace. These rules help define who is responsible for a workplace injury. However, the regulations are complex and confusing. A lawyer that has knowledge and experience in handling this type of claim will help you maximize your chance of success and the amount of your compensation.
