Falls and Structural Collapse

Construction Worker Fall Injury

San Diego County Construction Accident Lawyers

Staying safe in construction work is easier said than done. How do you keep two eyes on the task at hand, one eye on those working around you, one eye on the activity above, and one eye on your footing?

Falling accidents at construction sites are not about clumsy or careless construction workers. No matter how safety-conscious a person is, the cause of a fall injury is usually beyond the worker's control — equipment failure, structural collapse, obscured hazards or the unsafe actions of others.

The San Diego, California, law firm of Laureti and Associates is a proven advocate for victims of falling accidents or building collapse at construction sites. We pursue maximum compensation by identifying the negligence of third parties who caused or contributed to construction accidents.

Let our attorney determine if you have grounds to sue for damages for a construction fall injury. We have represented construction workers across San Diego County, Imperial County and Riverside County, from Chula Vista to El Centro to Temecula and beyond.

Construction-Related Falls From Heights

We have handled a wide spectrum of fall injury cases:

  • Falls from roofs or second stories
  • Falls from ladders and scaffolding
  • Falls through floor openings
  • Elevator shaft falls
  • Skylight installations
  • Falls from lifts and bucket trucks
  • Holes in the floor and other tripping hazards

Our clients have suffered paralysis (spinal cord injury) or disabling back injuries, broken legs or pelvises, broken arms, head injuries and other lasting harm, and we have represented their surviving family members in wrongful death lawsuits.

Structural Collapse and Falling Debris

Laureti and Associates has also represented clients injured when the structure itself falls on them:

  • Roof collapse
  • Falling sheetrock or buckled walls
  • Trench collapse
  • Falling or flying objects

Personal injury lawyer Anthony Laureti brings 20 years of experience to your case. He has successfully sued other subcontractors for negligence such as failing to cover holes, manufacturers of safety harnesses and fall protection gear, property owners responsible for dangerous conditions, and other entities accountable for fall injury.
