What can a personal injury lawyer help with?
If you’ve recently suffered a construction injury or a loved one was hurt or killed in a construction accident, it can feel like your entire future is uncertain. Your accident lawyer will work hard to help you get your bearings, so it’s important to reach out as soon as possible. Your injured construction worker attorney will help you with:
Recovering Medical Expenses
When an injury occurs, expenses are involved - whether the injury is minor or you need hospitalization or surgery. Worrying about medical expenses is the last thing you should have to do when you’re injured on a construction site. Your construction lawyer will help you gather all your medical bills and seek reimbursement from the at-fault party.
Lost Earnings
After an injury, you’ll likely need at least a little bit of time off work. Some injuries may even render you unable to return to work at all. With the help of an injured construction worker lawyer, you can pursue compensation for all the earnings you lost - and all those you might lose in the future as a result of the injury.
Pain and Suffering
When you’re healing after a construction injury, you probably feel like nobody understands what you’ve been through. While we haven’t personally experienced such a traumatic event, your sympathetic personal injury attorney has worked with a number of people just like you. We know you deserve compensation for the pain you’ve endured and the suffering you were put through, so we’ll make sure your claim includes monetary damages for pain and suffering.
Permanent Injuries
If you’ve been permanently injured on a construction site, the next stage of your life can be incredibly unclear. Dealing with a sudden disability is devastating, so we are here to advocate for you and help you seek damages that take your injuries and your future lost earnings into account.
Wrongful Death
Losing a loved one suddenly is the hardest thing a person can experience. No amount of monetary compensation can truly give you the justice you and your family deserve, but your construction death attorney will do everything in their power to help you navigate the litigation process during this awful time. We are here to help, so we promise you’ll get the most compassionate, helpful construction death lawyer in town to help with your case.
Making a Personal Injury Claim
Making a personal injury claim is a multi-step process, and it’s one you shouldn’t attempt to handle alone. Call The JL Firm before you even worry about any of the fine details. Our team will help you gather information and documentation, give you an idea of what to expect throughout the litigation process, walk you through every step, answer all your important questions, and be by your side until you get the resolution you want.
Filing for Workers’ Comp
Workers’ Compensation (or Workman’s Comp) is infamously tough to navigate, and many people are initially denied when they file. With the help of a skilled, experienced personal injury lawyer, the process will be a whole lot easier. We have all the expertise and tips you need to get your claim processed quickly and get the compensation you’re entitled to.
Third-Party Liability Claims
If a third party caused your injury, they are liable for the damages you suffered. Whether those damages involved your property or you were left with an injury, that third party must be held responsible. Reach out to The JL Firm to get all the advice, guidance, and legal help you need.
