Due to the nature of construction work, it only takes one mistake by one person for someone on a job site to sustain a severe injury. If you are a plumber or carpenter injured at work, you know workers’ compensation benefits are available to cover some of the expenses associated with an injury.

$2.5 million settlement for a 37-year-old carpenter foreman injured while supervising the delivery of heavy material at a construction site, where his employer used a backhoe to unload materials. Those materials shifted and started to fall. Our client jumped off the truck to avoid being struck by the falling load. As a result, he injured his knee. We successfully argued that the defendants had violated the Industrial Code regulations regarding using material hoists. Our client suffered a torn medial meniscus and anterior cruciate ligament tear, requiring two arthroscopic knee reconstruction procedures, and developed a chronic low back injury due to his impaired gait.
