Improperly maintained or constructed scaffolding, faulty machinery, cranes, falling debris, unsafe ladders, improperly trained employees, and failure to adhere to established OSHA requirements are just a few of the many root causes of construction accidents that can lead to wrongful death. Construction sites are beehives of activity. There are many different workers performing tasks that are often hurried and hazardous, under a constant pressure to meet time deadlines. Sadly, this atmosphere often means safety measures are compromised and workers are subjected to a high risk of injury and wrongful death.

In addition to workers' compensation, where wrongful death laws provide monetary disbursements to families to cover funeral expenses and survivor compensation, you may also be able to establish a claim against a negligent third-party actor. This includes the entity that caused the accident resulting in the worker's wrongful death (the company or individual), a manufacturer of faulty equipment, a contractor or vendor who disregarded safety rules, and supervisors who had inadequately or improperly trained workers whose negligence resulted in the wrongful death. Our Boston construction accident attorneys never settle for anything less than what you deserve.

Most often, our experience, skill, knowledge, and reputation results in a fair settlement through negotiation. However, when this is not the case, we are meticulously prepared to litigate on your behalf, taking the case to trial to fight for what is rightfully owed to you.
