Boulder Premises Liability Attorney
Lawyer Helping Construction Accident Victims
If you or a family member has been injured in a construction accident in Boulder or Longmont, you need
to hire a lawyer who understands both construction law and personal injury law. In addition to your workers' compensation rights with your employer, you may also have a claim against the third party responsible for your construction site injury. At The Law Office of Edward Smith we represent people throughout Colorado who are injured in construction site accidents due to defective ladders, improperly erected scaffolding, dangerous power tools or other defective products.
Construction workers face some of the most dangerous working conditions in the country on a daily basis. Although there are regulations, statutes, ordinances and industry standards that mandate employers must provide a reasonably safe working environment, construction workers still suffer serious injuries at an alarming rate. The sheer number of hazards on a construction site makes it virtually impossible to prevent all injuries from occurring. These hazards include falls from scaffolds and other elevations, being struck by moving or falling machinery, electrocution, health hazards resulting from exposure to asbestos and chemicals, injuries caused by defective or unsafe equipment, and lifting and repetitive motion injuries.
