Construction Litigation

Veteran Atlanta, Georgia Construction Accident Attorneys

Many injuries occur on construction sites. The Atlanta law firm of Watkins, Lourie, Roll & Chance represents individuals and family members in cases involving:

• Use of heavy equipment
• Falls
• Heavy objects falling on workers
• Trench cave-ins
• Unsafe working conditions

We concentrate on helping individuals and families who face the most serious losses, such as burn injuries, spinal cord injuries, brain injuries, and wrongful death.

Many construction accident injuries happen because the general contractor fails to create an adequate safety plan to prevent injuries in a dangerous work environment. Injuries may also be caused by an employer's willful violation of Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) rules.

In addition to injured workers and their families, our construction injury lawyers represent people who are not involved in the construction but are injured because of construction activity. In one of the cases we handled, we obtained a $2,050,000 settlement for a client who lost her leg in a motor vehicle accident that was caused by excessive storm water run off from a construction site.

For examples of successful construction accident cases we have handled, see Victories.
