West Palm Beach construction accident lawyers

Your legal options for recovering financial compensation after being hurt in a construction accident in West Palm Beach can depend on various circumstances. If you were a construction worker hurt on the job, you are normally entitled to pursue a claim for workers’ compensation benefits. Workers’ compensation in Florida is a “no-fault” system, meaning that an injured worker does not need to prove their employer’s fault for their injuries to be entitled to workers’ comp benefits. Financial benefits from workers’ comp may include:

However, if a third party has legal liability for injuries you sustained on the job in a construction site accident, you may be entitled to pursue a personal injury claim against that third party in addition to your workers’ comp claim. For example, if you are injured by defective equipment or machinery, you can file a claim for compensation against the manufacturer. A personal injury claim can allow you to recover compensation for:

Nearby residents or passersby who are injured by construction site accidents are also entitled to pursue full compensation in a personal injury claim against liable parties, which may include the site owner or the construction company.

About West Palm Beach, FL

West Palm Beach is a city located in and the county seat of Palm Beach County, Florida. In 1894, West Palm Beach became the first incorporated municipality in South Florida. Early development was spurred by the agriculture and tourism industries, followed by the 1920s Florida land boom. Although growth slowed following the 1928 Okeechobee hurricane, another wave of population growth followed World War II as servicemembers who had completed training in South Florida moved to the area following the war. In recent years, West Palm Beach has undertaken a redevelopment of its downtown area, including preserving historic architecture and neighborhoods.
