Defective Construction Equipment

My uncle has been severely injured in a construction accident caused by defective equipment. What should I do to help him find justice and compensation?

When a loved one is injured in a construction site accident caused by defective equipment, the consequence can be devastating. It is possible, however, to assert a legal claim against the party or parties responsible for providing the defective equipment. Therefore, anyone injured in a construction site accident due to defective equipment should discuss possible options with an experienced construction site accident attorney.

    1. The equipment at construction sites need to be properly maintained by contractors and subcontractors of the construction site. If they fail to do so, they can be sued for the injuries suffered due to heavy machinery accidents. Lawyers at Rockland Injury Lawyers are experienced in dealing with insurance agencies and court proceedings. They can help you.

    1. "Employers can minimize these risks by taking certain simple steps, including:
      Properly maintaining all equipment on the job site, from earth moving equipment to hand tools
      Providing proper training in the use of equipment and enforcing safety procedures on the worksite
      Identifying and containing environmental hazards such as asbestos and other potentially dangerous substances
      Complying with all worksite safety standards set forth by OSHA. For more details: http://www.jmlawyer.com/practice-areas/construction-equipment"
