Ladder Accidents
Ladders are prevalent tools on any construction job site. All too often, however, they are also a source of significant injuries or death.
Ladders are inherently unstable and dangerous by design. They are also susceptible to misuse, which can increase the likelihood of an accident. Workers are often not given sufficient instruction on how to erect and use ladders safely. And at many work sites, instructions and warnings on the ladder itself may become worn away or covered up.
Scaffolding Accidents
Like ladders, scaffolding is a prevalent structure at many construction sites and a common source of serious injuries.
Scaffolding falls are often the result of causes that may not be readily apparent. If not properly bolted together, scaffolding can collapse or create an unstable surface. In some cases, the materials composing the scaffolding are insufficient to withstand the structural demands placed upon it.
Four Decades of Fighting for Injury Victims
Nothing can prepare you for the sudden and far-reaching impact of a construction accident.
