San Francisco Construction Accident Attorney

Construction worksites are among the most dangerous work environments in the nation.  Regardless of how skillful and experienced workers may be, tragic accidents can leave them with devastating injuries, scars, or disabilities, and even cause death.

Serious head or back injuries, as well as burns and paralysis, can result from the following kinds of construction accidents:

• Scaffolding accidents
• Fires and explosions
• Structural failure or collapse
• Being run over or crushed by heavy machinery
• Falls from high places or into elevator shafts

In recent years, the U.S. Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) consistently listed the construction industry as one of the top culprits for workplace injuries and fatalities.  While OSHA sets forth workplace safety regulations, these precautions are sometimes disregarded when budgets and deadlines are tight.

If your family member or other loved one was hurt or killed in a construction accident caused by the negligence of a construction company supervisor, owner, or other party, please contact us today to determine if your case has merit.  A San Francisco construction lawyer with the law office of Michael & Michelle Mandel can help you file a lawsuit to obtain monetary compensation for losses such as medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

We are here to fight for you

With over 30 years experience in personal injury law, we can gauge what is fair compensation for your particular injuries and losses, based upon the many construction accident cases we handled over the years. We are also familiar with the tactics that insurance adjustors and lawyers for the opposition sometimes use to deny you all or part of the settlement you deserve.

Since we handle all cases on a contingency basis, you pay no legal fees unless we win. Our firm also advances case and litigation costs, which are not reimbursable unless there is a monetary recovery. If we win, our legal services are paid as an agreed-upon percentage of the settlement.

When you have an aggressive, well-respected personal injury lawyer by your side, insurance companies are more apt to negotiate in good faith rather than risk losing in a courtroom battle.
