Construction Accidents

If you have been injured on a construction or building site, our experienced solicitors can advise you on making a construction accident claim. Our specialist team can help you get the compensation you deserve to support your recovery from construction accidents and will guide you throughout the entire process. 

Building sites are dangerous places for even the most experienced construction worker – heavy machinery combined with a distractingly noisy environment means accidents are sadly common.

At Ramsdens Solicitors, we have supported clients to make successful claims for a range of building site accidents, including:

  • Falls from roofing or scaffolding
  • Slips and trips
  • Forklift truck accidents
  • Crane accidents
  • Limb injuries
  • Head and brain injuries
  • Breaks and fractures
  • Trench collapses
  • Electrical accidents
  • Fires and explosions
  • Welding accidents
  • Construction machinery accidents

We appreciate just how life changing a construction accident can be. Even if your injury is relatively minor, you will probably need time off work to recover, leading to lost wages – the bills can soon pile up and leave you in a difficult situation.

The compensation we claim for our clients helps them to keep on top of their responsibilities while recovering. For our clients who have been seriously injured in a construction accident, compensation can be vital in helping to cover expensive medical care.
