Workers’ Compensation and Third-Party Liability Claims

When you are injured on a construction site, workers' compensation may be your first recourse for compensation. However, if your injury was caused by negligence, defective equipment, or unsafe practices on the part of third parties (such as contractors, manufacturers, or equipment suppliers), you may be entitled to additional compensation through third-party liability claims. H&S Law Group helps clients navigate both workers' compensation claims and third-party lawsuits, ensuring you receive the full financial recovery you deserve. 

Why You Need an Experienced Construction Accident Lawyer

Construction accident cases are complex and often involve multiple parties, such as employers, subcontractors, equipment manufacturers, and insurance companies. Our attorneys at H&S Law Group have extensive experience handling these types of cases and can thoroughly investigate the cause of your accident. With our aggressive approach, we gather evidence, interview witnesses, and work with experts to build a strong case that proves negligence and secures maximum compensation for your injuries.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do immediately after a construction site accident?

After a construction accident, your first priority should be to seek medical attention, even if the injuries seem minor. Once you’re stable, report the accident to your supervisor and document all details of the incident, including photos, witness statements, and any unsafe conditions that may have contributed. Contact an experienced attorney as soon as possible to ensure your legal rights are protected.

Can I file a lawsuit for a construction injury if I’m receiving workers' compensation?

Yes, in some cases, you may be able to file a personal injury lawsuit in addition to receiving workers’ compensation if a third party (such as a contractor, equipment manufacturer, or property owner) was responsible for your injury. An experienced construction accident attorney can help determine if you have grounds for a third-party claim.

What types of injuries are common on construction sites?

Common construction site injuries include falls from heights, machinery-related accidents, burns or electrocution, falling objects, trench collapses, and repetitive motion injuries. These accidents can lead to serious injuries such as broken bones, head trauma, spinal injuries, and long-term disabilities.

How do I prove negligence in a construction accident case?

To prove negligence, your attorney will need to demonstrate that the responsible party (employer, contractor, or manufacturer) failed to provide a safe working environment or breached safety protocols, which directly led to your injury. Evidence such as accident reports, photographs, witness testimonies, and expert evaluations can support your case.

How long do I have to file a construction accident claim in New Jersey?

In New Jersey, the statute of limitations for filing a construction accident lawsuit is generally two years from the date of the injury. However, there are exceptions, and it’s important to consult with an attorney immediately to ensure you meet all necessary deadlines and preserve your legal rights.
