Construction Site Injuries from Dangerous WA Jobsites

Common Causes of Construction Accident Injuries

Some of the most common causes of construction accident injuries include, but are not limited to:

• Falls from ladders or scaffolding
• Incidents involving construction vehicles
• Injuries from sharp or heavy objects
• Slips or trips and falls due to inappropriately placed wiring or other machinery

Burns, brain injury, spinal cord injury, soft tissue damage, and foot and hand injuries are just a few of the painful results from such accidents. We know from experience that even the most minor of incidents can lead to permanent, life-changing damage. This is just one of the many reasons why a Seattle area construction accidents lawyer at our firm is committed to educating citizens throughout the state on the problem of preventable injuries.
