Construction & Industrial Accidents

Pittsburgh Personal Injury Attorney:
Industrial and Construction Accidents

Trial lawyers at Rosen Louik & Perry, our Pittsburgh personal injury law firm, help clients throughout western Pennsylvania recover compensation for injuries resulting from construction accidents, industrial accidents, and defective products. Our accident investigations often reveal that a defective part, defective product, or an industrial safety violation may be responsible for a workplace or construction accident.

Sources of compensation for industrial and construction accidents

Any person injured on the job is entitled to workers' compensation benefits that cover medical expenses and a percentage of lost wages. However, depending on the unique circumstances surrounding the case, there may be additional sources of compensation available for the victim and victim's family.

Product liability claims: If you or a member of your family was injured in a workplace accident, and that injury resulted from a defective product, dangerous equipment, or poorly designed tool, you may have a product liability claim. Our lawyers have successfully pursued hundreds of product liability claims against automakers, industrial equipment suppliers, and manufacturers in defective product cases.

Premises liability claims: If the property owner, general contractor, or another person other than your employer was responsible for an unguarded walkway, collapsed foundation, slippery floor, or other dangerous situation at your jobsite, you may have a premises liability claim.

OSHA safety violations: Our attorneys will work with accident reconstructionists, examine records of safety inspections, and interview witnesses to determine whether your injuries partly resulted from violations of regulations under the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).

The full value of your claim: Construction and industrial accidents often result in serious injuries such as traumatic brain injury, quadriplegia, paraplegia, chemical burns, electrical injuries, and amputation. Our lawyers work with medical and economic experts to see that our clients receive the treatment they need and recover full compensation for their losses.
