A construction accident could leave you disabled. Get paid for your injury by calling our construction accident attorneys in Chesterfield, MO.

Construction sites are filled with warning signs and personal protection equipment. There’s a good reason. Construction is a dangerous industry even when everyone is taking measures to protect themselves. Protect yourself by knowing when to contact our construction accident lawyers in Chesterfield.

Morelli Law can help protect your interests after a construction accident. Your case may qualify for a personal injury lawsuit, and if you’re a worker, you also have workers’ compensation. Make sure you get the most money after your accident by working with a Chesterfield personal injury lawyer. You may need it.

Construction Accident Damages

Construction workers are heavy laborers. They rely on their bodies to do their jobs, but that may not be possible after a construction accident. Victims of construction accidents have many legal damages they could claim in a lawsuit because of this.

Workers’ comp should cover most of the economic damages, like your medical bills and some of your lost wages. You may also qualify for disability payments and money for vocational rehabilitation if you cannot work your old position. However, you may be owed much more.

Injuries from construction sites, like falls and concussions, may cause long-term pain and suffering. You deserve to get compensated for that as well, and we can see if your case qualifies. If so, you could get much more than you think with our help.

When Can I Sue After a Construction Accident?

The key question is whether whoever harmed you works for your employer. Under the rules of workers’ compensation, you cannot sue your employer. In exchange, you get access to a system that pays quickly and doesn’t require you to prove fault.

If the person who harmed you works for a third party, or a third party did something like make a shoddy product that caused you injury, then you can sue them for compensation. Fortunately for construction workers, there are often many parties that could qualify.

The best way to find out is to contact our Chesterfield construction accident attorneys. You have enough to worry about healing after your accident. Let us work through the legal details and see if your case qualifies for a lawsuit.

If I Don’t Qualify, Can You Still Help Me?

Morelli Law can also help you with your workers’ compensation claim after a construction accident. Insurers require workers to fill out their own claim forms, and you can bet that they will use every trick they can to pay you as little as they legally can.

However, if you have one of our lawyers helping you, we can make sure that your claim is airtight. We’ll make sure it covers all the expenses you can claim under workers’ comp, including ones you may not know about.

Also, if your claim was rejected or if the offer you’ve received is far too low, Morelli Law can help you appeal your claim with the Missouri Division of Workers’ Compensation. If you have received a letter stating your claim was rejected, call us immediately for legal advice.

How Much Could I Get from My Construction Accident?

Getting money from any personal injury accident depends on evidence. There isn’t a table that says you get so much for a broken leg and so much for a cut finger. Until we can see all the evidence and your legal situation, it’s impossible to say how much you can get.

We may be able to estimate based on previous cases we’ve tried, but that amount will be an educated guess until we can perform an investigation. Your specific injuries, how much you were making, whether you can return to work, and whether you qualify for a lawsuit can all change how much you could get.

Fortunately, you do not have to worry about damage caps in construction accident cases in Missouri. There is no limit to how much you could get, but you will still need our Chesterfield construction accident lawyers to argue for it.

Can You Help Me with a Wrongful Death Claim?

Thousands of construction workers die each year on the job. Survivors can file wrongful death claims with both workers’ compensation and against those responsible. Morelli Law’s wrongful death lawyers can help you with these claims.

You can receive money to pay for final medical and burial expenses, lost wages, and more. These cases have special limits on who can file them though, so you will need to speak with us to see if you qualify to bring one forward.

A wrongful death claim can help your family cushion the financial shock of losing a breadwinner in your family and suddenly paying for funeral expenses. See if we can help you by calling us for a free case evaluation.

When Should I Contact a Construction Accident Lawyer in Chesterfield?

Whenever you’re injured after any accident, you should first call 911 to receive medical attention. After that, call a construction accident lawyer as soon as possible. You have legal deadlines for suing.

Starting early gives your lawyer enough time to work on your case before they’re forced to file. Our team will gather evidence, speak with experts, and negotiate with the insurers on your behalf.

If the insurers won’t listen to your claim, we’ll have the time to prepare a case for court and argue for damages before a judge and jury. That can only happen if you contact us as soon as possible after your accident.
