New Jersey Lawyers:
Scaffold Accident Injury Claims
The general contractor on a construction site is required under New Jersey law to provide a safe environment and see that scaffolding is properly erected and maintained. Scaffolds should be properly fenced off from pedestrian traffic, with guardrails, safety harnesses, and safety nets as required by OSHA guidelines. The manufacturers and suppliers of ladders and scaffold equipment are also strictly liable for injuries caused by dangerous or defective equipment.
Scaffold accident injury claims
If you were injured in a scaffold accident, or if your loved one died in such an accident, workers' compensation benefits do not fully compensate you for your loss. At The Law Offices of John F. Marshall, our New Jersey, personal injury attorneys strive to identify all sources of compensation for our clients' losses following a scaffold collapse or other accident, helping them to recover maximum compensation.
If you would like one of our lawyers to review an injury or death claim resulting from a scaffold accident, please contact our Shrewsbury office to arrange a free consultation. They will examine all facts surrounding the accident. You may be entitled to a premises liability claim or products liability claim in addition to benefits from your employer.
Have an attorney evaluate your injury claim
A broken shoulder or slipped disc can cause permanent disability and chronic pain. A catastrophic injury such as a spinal cord injury leading to paralysis or head injury leading to traumatic brain injury (TBI) may result in a lifetime of medical treatment and the need for assistance with daily care. It is extremely important that your injury is evaluated by medical and physical therapy experts, and your claim is accurately evaluated by life care and economic experts so you receive fair compensation for your loss.
