Bucks County Construction Accident Attorney

BACK TO ARTICLES

Our Bucks County construction accident attorneys fight for injured workers hurt on job sites, scaffolding, or heavy equipment accidents.

Construction sites across Bucks County — from Bensalem and Doylestown to Bristol and Quakertown — are filled with hazards that can turn a normal workday into a life-changing tragedy. Whether it’s a scaffolding collapse, a machinery malfunction, or unsafe work conditions, injured workers often face serious injuries and financial hardship.

At Wilk Law Firm, our Bucks County construction accident lawyers understand the physical, emotional, and financial toll these accidents bring. We are dedicated to helping injured workers and their families seek the justice and compensation they deserve after a serious job-site injury.

Common Causes of Construction Accidents

Construction work is one of the most dangerous occupations, and even a small mistake or oversight can have devastating consequences. Common causes of construction accidents in Bucks County include:

  • Falls from scaffolds, ladders, or roofs
  • Crane, forklift, or heavy equipment accidents
  • Electrocutions from faulty wiring or power lines
  • Falling tools or materials from heights
  • Trench collapses and structural failures
  • Defective tools or safety equipment
  • Lack of training or safety oversight

Each case requires a careful investigation to determine who is truly responsible — whether it’s a general contractor, subcontractor, site owner, or manufacturer.

Serious Injuries from Construction Accidents

Construction injuries are often catastrophic, leading to long-term or permanent consequences. Victims frequently suffer from:

  • Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
  • Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
  • Severe burns or electrical injuries
  • Fractures, amputations, and crush injuries
  • Internal bleeding and organ damage
  • Chronic pain and psychological trauma

These injuries can prevent victims from returning to work and may require a lifetime of care — both of which must be considered in your claim.

Determining Liability in Construction Accidents

While Pennsylvania’s workers’ compensation system covers most job-related injuries, it doesn’t always provide full recovery for all losses. In many cases, third-party claims may be filed against negligent parties such as:

  • Equipment or machinery manufacturers
  • Subcontractors or general contractors
  • Property owners or site managers
  • Architects or engineers

Our Bucks County construction accident attorneys have the experience to identify all responsible parties and pursue every avenue for compensation.

Compensation Available for Injured Workers

If you’ve been hurt on a construction site, you may be entitled to recover damages for:

  • Medical expenses and rehabilitation
  • Lost income and diminished earning potential
  • Pain and suffering
  • Permanent disability or disfigurement
  • Loss of enjoyment of life
  • Wrongful death damages (if the accident was fatal)

At Wilk Law Firm, we ensure that every aspect of your injury — physical, emotional, and financial — is fully accounted for.
