Royal Palm Beach Job Injury Attorneys
Construction sites can be dangerous, regardless of how much training and skill a worker has. Multiple tasks are being worked on simultaneously, often by a variety of crews. Heavy equipment and materials that are hazardous on their own are used by workers who may be extremely experienced or who may be new to the job. Along the way, safety standards are frequently overlooked.
If you have been hurt on a construction site or if someone you care about has suffered an injury on the job, contact the trial lawyers at the law offices of Friedman, Rodman & Frank, P.A. We will fight to achieve the best possible results for you.
Construction accidents can cause head and brain injuries, paralysis, loss of arms and legs, back injuries, vision loss, broken bones and even wrongful death.
We handled a construction accident case involving a laborer at a high rise project who was struck by a large form being moved by crane. He fell eight stories and suffered significant injuries. We took action against the construction company and recovered $2.5 million for the victim.

Workers' compensation is one remedy that may be available to injured Florida construction workers. This covers medical costs as well as lost income. In some cases, victims may be able to get lifetime permanent disability payments and lump sum settlements. Our lawyers help workers throughout the state file workers' comp claims.
We also take other steps to maximize your compensation. This includes looking at every valid legal claim that can be brought, including personal injury claims against property owners, general contractors and subcontractors. This can lead to compensation above and beyond what you get through work comp.
