Recover After Your Construction Site Accident
While construction workers are entitled to workers' compensation when they are hurt on a construction site, in some cases injured workers may also be able to bring personal injury claims against responsible third parties. Because additional compensation is possible with a third-party injury claim, it pays to ask a lawyer to examine your construction accident case to determine who was really at fault.
The personal injury attorneys at the Houston offices of The Manginello Law Firm, PLLC can evaluate your case and let you know whether you have the option of pursuing compensation through a personal injury claim. We also handle wrongful death claims for the families of construction workers who have died on the job.

If you were injured on the job, you cannot file a personal injury lawsuit against your employer or a co-worker. However, with so many different companies involved on the average construction site, a third party is often responsible for the conditions that led to your work injury. If a third party was responsible in your case, you can file a personal injury claim for a settlement above and beyond your workers' compensation benefits.
Construction sites are some of the most dangerous workplace environments. Every day, construction workers risk their health and safety. Every year, hundreds of Houston construction workers suffer injury from:
- Crane accidents
- Forklift accidents
- Fall from heights
- Scaffolding collapses
After a construction site accident, we will make sure you and your family are protected by looking into every possible source of financial recovery. In a third-party personal injury case, you could be awarded compensation for:
- Lost wages and diminished future income
- Medical expenses
- Pain and suffering
