Our Boca Raton Construction Accident Lawyers Fight Tirelessly for Those Who Have Suffered Traumatic Injury on Construction Sites

While it comes as no surprise that Florida has been experiencing a building boom for nearly 10 years, an unfortunate result is the increase in the number of construction site accidents, injuries & fatalities that accompany this level of growth.  Between 2011 and 2018, there was a 140% increase in construction site fatalities in Florida alone, according to a 2020 news article by The Palm Beach Post.  

Construction sites, by their very nature, present exceptionally dangerous work environments. For those injured in construction accidents, the physical and mental damage can last a lifetime, due to the catastrophic level of injury caused by motor vehicles, heavy equipment, and construction materials.

Among the most frequent causes of injury & fatality at construction worksites:

  • Falls from elevated heights
  • Slip and trip accidents
  • Being struck by vehicles or moving equipment on the construction site
  • Being caught in or between construction site spaces, objects, or equipment
