If you were hurt while working on a construction site, you may have the right to pursue workers’ compensation benefits.

Construction Injury Claims We Commonly Handle
Construction sites present many risks, and injuries can happen even when workers follow all safety protocols. At the Law Office of Ronald P. Ehrman, we have handled a wide range of claims for injured construction workers throughout Los Angeles. Some of the most common accidents we assist with include:

  • Falls from scaffolding, ladders, or roofs
  • Being struck by falling objects or debris
  • Equipment malfunctions or power tool injuries
  • Trench collapses or structural failures
  • Electrical injuries or burns
  • Injuries caused by exposure to toxic materials
  • Repetitive stress or overexertion injuries

If you were hurt while working on a construction site, we can walk you through your options under California’s workers’ compensation laws. In some situations, you may also be able to file a third-party claim if another person or company played a role in the accident.

What Benefits Are Available After a Construction Injury?

If you were injured while working on a construction site, you may be eligible for workers’ compensation benefits under California law. These benefits can help cover the basic costs of recovery, including:

  • Medical treatment
  • Temporary or permanent disability payments
  • Compensation for lost wages
  • Job retraining if you cannot return to your previous position

You do not need to prove that someone was at fault in order to file for workers’ compensation. However, some construction accidents involve third-party liability, such as equipment manufacturers, subcontractors, or property owners. In those cases, you may also have the option to file a personal injury claim in addition to your workers’ comp case.

When to Call a Construction Accident Attorney

If you’ve been hurt on the job, timing can make a difference. You don’t need to wait until your claim is denied to seek legal help. In fact, many workers contact us as soon as they’re injured or when they’re unsure about how to report the incident. You may want to reach out if:

  • You were injured and are unsure what benefits you're entitled to
  • Your employer is pressuring you not to file a claim
  • You’re receiving medical care but aren’t getting wage replacement
  • Your claim has been delayed, denied, or underpaid
  • A third-party contractor, subcontractor, or manufacturer may be involved

Speaking with our construction accident lawyer early can help clarify your options and take some of the burden off your shoulders during an already stressful time.
