Falls, falling materials, crane incidents, unsafe conditions, and dangerous work tools all contribute to construction accidents. We can help you pursue all claims if you were injured on a construction site in Seattle.
Falls are a leading cause of workplace injury. Problems with fall protection, ladders, and scaffolding make up the most frequently cited OSHA standards violations.
Many workplace injuries result from motor vehicle accidents in which a person is hit by a negligent motorist while driving or otherwise working.
Ship, dock, or pier employees who are injured on the job may be able to file a third-party claim against the party responsible for their injuries. This could be in addition to a workers’ compensation claim for benefits.

If you were injured due to the negligence of a third party, our workplace accident lawyers in Seattle can pursue maximum compensation on your behalf.
Most Washington employers are required to carry workers’ compensation to cover their employees’ injuries that occur on the job. Workers’ compensation is a no-fault insurance system that pays for medical expenses and partially replaces income. Employees do not have to prove that their employer was negligent in order to recover compensation.
Because workers’ compensation benefits are limited by law and do not provide compensation for all losses, such as pain and suffering, our team can investigate if other parties are responsible for your injuries.
Through a third-party claim, you can seek compensation for the full extent of your economic and non-economic damages, which may include money for:

Different time limits could apply to your case, depending on the type of claim you file. Workers’ compensation claims must typically be filed within one year from the date of the injury. You may have two years to file for an occupational disease.
In comparison, you generally have up to three years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit (with some exceptions). If the applicable statute of limitations passes and you have not filed a personal injury case, you can lose your right to sue.
