Construction Crane Accident Attorneys

Crane accidents are a frequent cause of injuries in the construction industry. When those responsible for worker safety fail to properly maintain the worksite, the risk of crane malfunctions increases. Crane accidents can occur in various ways, such as improperly secured loads, operating in unsafe weather conditions, contact with power lines, boom collapses, unstable terrain, or crane falls, all of which can lead to severe injuries or even fatalities.

Workers have the right to a safe construction site. At Pulvers, Pulvers & Thompson L.L.P., our experienced personal injury attorneys are dedicated to assisting clients injured in crane accidents, whether due to cargo loss or total collapse. Victims of crane-related injuries may be entitled to financial compensation beyond workers’ compensation. We strive to secure the maximum compensation to cover lost income, pain and suffering, and medical expenses.

In addition, an experienced construction accident attorney can guide you to determine if you are entitled to damage from any other negligent parties.

Often, a jury verdict will provide a higher settlement for personal injury cases, and an attorney can help you through the process of determining if there is negligence and, if necessary, in going to trial.
