At construction sites throughout the nation, thousands of workers are injured and even killed each year. Due to the high occurrence of injury and death, working construction is one of the most dangerous occupations in America today. McCarthy & Kelly LLP help victims of construction site accidents and their families to secure their legal rights. In the event of a construction site accident, the owners, architects, insurance companies and manufacturers may be found responsible for inadequate safety provisions. The general contractor is often ultimately responsible (due to contractual obligations) for the supervision and safety of the accident victim. It is their duty to provide a safe site and to warn of possible hazards at any given work area. As there is very often many subcontractors working on a construction site, each is responsible for ensuring that proper safety regulations are met, and that the work environment is safe for all workers involved. Any lack of these provisions may be a claim on behalf of an injured worker. In addition, the manufacturers of the construction equipment are responsible for the design of safe products. It is possible that many of the products in use at a construction site could be considered as dangerous, and if involved in an accident, it may be the manufacturer who is responsible.
