Skilled Construction Accident Attorney in Dallas, Texas

Construction worksites can be very dangerous places. Construction contractors use a lot of equipment that can cause injury - scaffolding, heavy machinery, power tools, chemicals - and they use it at a fast pace in order to get the job done on time and on budget.

If you are injured in a construction accident, your family has a lot to worry about. Besides lost income, people are often concerned that a temporary injury may become permanent or that you may have to endure chronic pain that will make it harder to work.

If you have been injured in a construction accident, you should know that you could have options beyond filing a workers' compensation claim. If your accident was caused by a defective product, or by the negligence of someone other than your employer, you may have the right to seek additional compensation through a personal injury claim.

I am attorney Dan A. Atkerson, and I have been practicing personal injury law for more than 25 years. I have dedicated a great deal of my practice to winning compensation for hard-working people who have been hurt on the job through the actions of third parties.

Third-party personal injury claims can arise from a variety of situations. For example:

•· Falls from scaffolding are sometimes the result of a subcontractor's failure to secure the scaffolding properly. Workers employed by the general contractor or by other subcontractors would have a personal injury claim against the company responsible.

•· When an existing building is being renovated or torn down, faulty wiring could cause electrical shock injuries or burns. A construction worker or remodeler could have a premises liability claim against the owner of the building.

•· If a hearing protection device does not perform as rated and causes permanent hearing loss, the injured worker could have a product liability claim against the manufacturer, distributor and retailer of the product.
