Construction workers who are injured on the job usually receive worker’s compensation benefits following the accident. An injured worker may also have a right to sue parties responsible for his injuries other than the employer. This enables the injured worker to obtain more compensation for injuries suffered than the amounts provided by the worker’s compensation law. A Harvard Law school graduate, Jan M. Weinberg is experienced in litigation cases of serious injuries suffered at construction sites.

Pursue Full Compensation following a Construction Site Injury
Working at a construction site can be a very dangerous job. Workers are exposed to hazards, such as:
- Scaffolding collapsing
- Trench collapses
- Roof collapses
- Fall from ladders or heights
- Defective equipment failures
- Forklift accidents, backhoe accidents, and other heavy equipment accidents
- Unsafe work conditions
Workers may be able to file personal injury claims against responsible parties other than their employers. This may include general contractors, owners, subcontractors, equipment manufacturers or other negligent parties.
As an experienced personal injury lawyer, I have the necessary litigation experience and knowledge of the relevant statutes to confidently represent clients in construction site injury cases in Hawaii.
