San Francisco Construction-Related Lawyer
Every construction site poses certain hazards. Whether the job site is a skyscraper in downtown San Francisco or a residential home on a suburban cul de sac, accidents happen.
Whenever and wherever a construction accident occurs, the actions of one contractor may create hazards for the employees of any other employers on the site. Those hazards created by construction activity on a "multi-employer work site" can cause life-changing personal injury. When they do, the lawyers at Butler Viadro LLP are there to help.
You Sacrificed Everything for Your Job — We'll Help You Get the Money You Need
Our legal team represents construction accident victims, helping them hold negligent workers and companies accountable for the harm caused. We often discover that the construction accidents were caused by defective products, poorly maintained equipment, negligent sub contractors or negligent general contractors. When we do, we take action against those parties.
A workplace injury can result in workers' compensation and a personal injury claim
An electrician was hurt on the job by a crane operator who failed to use proper caution when he hit a load into a wall and dropped the load. The crane operator worked for the general contractor which was in charge of all crane operations. A subcontractor had performed the rigging and was also responsible. Because the crane operator and rigging subcontractor were employed by someone else, the injured electrician's remedies were not limited to just workers' compensation. He was also able to pursue a personal injury lawsuit in California courts.
