Workers’ compensation insurance prevents you from filing a lawsuit against your employer. However, you can file a lawsuit against a negligent third party when your injuries are caused by someone else’s negligence. Our legal team will go above and beyond to hold the negligent third party accountable for your injuries and other damages. If the at-fault party refuses to make a reasonable settlement offer, we will proceed with going to trial and present your case before a judge and jury. The majority of the time, these cases will settle out of court.
If you’re injured on the job in Florida, you’re eligible to file a workers’ compensation claim, regardless of whether you were negligent or not. For example, workers’ comp benefits can include:
An accident on a construction site can happen for many reasons. This can include negligence on the part of the employer, or faulty equipment. To recover compensation for your injuries, your construction accident lawyer must identify all defendants in your case. For instance, this can include:
Your construction accident lawyer in Bonita Springs will conduct an in-depth accident investigation to identify all liable parties. Thus, we can hold them accountable for your accident-related damages.
Construction site accidents can be physically challenging for the injured worker. But, they can also exert psychological, emotional, and financial pain as well. After an accident on a construction site, you may be faced with a long recovery and ongoing physical therapy. Consequently, this can create steep medical bills that can quickly pile up. The combination of dealing with the financial burden your injuries have caused and your painful recovery can make pursuing compensation exhausting and overwhelming.

Our seasoned construction accident attorneys in Bonita Springs have handled all types of construction accident cases, including:
A construction site can be a very dangerous place and workers often sustain serious injuries. Some of the most common injuries sustained on a construction site include:
A spinal cord injury is one of the most severe injuries sustained on a construction site. This type of injury can occur when someone gets hit by something heavy, gets electrocuted, or when someone falls. This type of injury can have a long-lasting effect, such as nerve damage or paralysis.
Burn injuries can happen when a worker spills dangerous chemicals or touches something extremely hot. An employer must provide their workers with the appropriate training and safety equipment to prevent these types of injuries.
TBIs are another common type of injury workers can sustain on a construction site. A worker can get injured if they fall from a great height, or when they trip and fall or slip and fall and make contact with a hard surface.
Broken bones can occur when a person gets caught between a wall or machinery or when something falls on them.
Soft tissue damage happens when an injured worker gets cut or sustains bruises or contusions when their body comes into contact with sharp machinery or equipment, if they fall, or if something falls on them.
These injuries can happen when a worker lifts a heavy object.
A knee injury is another common type of injury sustained on a construction site. Knee injuries occur when a worker twists their knee or when they bend down to lift something.

I’m a 9/11 first responder, and I can honestly say that Parker Waichman made me feel like they had my best interest in my VCF case. Ms Candalino & Ms Viti are top notch in my book. I was constantly informed on the status of my case. I would definitely recommend Parker Waichman LLP to family and friends.
