Construction and Trade Injuries

Des Moines Construction Injury Attorney.

There are various types of occupations within the construction industry. A certain amount of risk can come with working in the construction industry, particularly if a company is negligent in providing a safe working environment or properly maintained equipment. If you or a loved one was injured in a construction accident, the Hemminger Law Firm can talk to you about your rights to obtaining workers’ compensation benefits.

What Is Your Trade? We Assist Injured Workers of All Construction Trades.

Construction work is hard work — no matter what you are doing all day. Our law firm represents injured people who work as:

Carpenters
Electricians
Bricklayers
Plasterers
Painters
Joiners
Welders
Tilers
Dry liners/dry wallers
Framers
Roofers
Glaziers/glass installers
Landscapers
Partitioners

Road crew workers

Working with heavy equipment, sharp objects and dangerous tools is part of the job. However, injuries do not have to be. If you were injured in a job site or construction accident, you may have sustained:

Traumatic brain injury
Spinal cord injury
Neck and back injury
Burn injury
Shoulder injury
Loss of limb/amputation
Cuts and lacerations
Eye injuries

It may be possible to seek compensation from a third party — a party other than your employer. For example, if you were injured using a faulty nail gun, it may be possible to bring a third-party claim against the manufacturer of the nail gun. Our firm explores all avenues of compensation in addition to your workers’ compensation benefits.
