Delaware County Construction Accident Attorney
Construction sites in Delaware County are some of the most active in Pennsylvania, with ongoing commercial, residential, and infrastructure projects. From Media and Upper Darby to Springfield and Haverford, construction workers face hazards every day that can result in severe injuries or even death.
When job site safety is compromised, the results can be catastrophic. At Wilk Law Firm, our Delaware County construction accident attorneys fight for workers and their families who have suffered due to negligence, unsafe conditions, or defective equipment. We understand what’s at stake — your health, livelihood, and financial security — and we’re here to help you rebuild.
Common Causes of Construction Accidents
Even with strict safety regulations in place, construction remains one of the most dangerous industries. Many accidents occur because of carelessness, poor oversight, or equipment failure. Common causes include:
- Falls from scaffolding, roofs, or ladders
- Crane or forklift accidents
- Falling debris or collapsing structures
- Electrocutions from exposed wiring or power lines
- Defective or malfunctioning machinery
- Trench collapses or cave-ins
- Inadequate safety training or supervision
Our attorneys thoroughly investigate the cause of every accident to identify all liable parties and ensure victims get the justice they deserve.
Injuries Common in Construction Accidents
Construction workers face a high risk of serious or fatal injuries on the job. Some of the most common include:
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
- Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
- Broken bones and crushed limbs
- Severe burns and electrocution injuries
- Amputations or disfigurement
- Internal organ injuries or bleeding
- Chronic pain and long-term disability
The physical and emotional toll of these injuries is immense — and the financial strain that follows can be devastating.
Determining Liability in Construction Accidents
Construction sites often involve multiple parties, including contractors, subcontractors, property owners, and equipment manufacturers. While injured workers can typically file for workers’ compensation, that system may not cover all damages.
In many cases, victims may pursue third-party claims against negligent parties such as:
- Equipment or tool manufacturers
- Site owners and general contractors
- Subcontractors responsible for safety violations
- Maintenance or inspection companies
- Architects or engineers
Our Delaware County construction accident lawyers use expert resources and in-depth investigations to uncover the truth and maximize your recovery.
Compensation for Construction Accident Victims
Depending on your circumstances, you may be entitled to compensation for:
- Medical expenses and rehabilitation
- Lost wages and loss of future income
- Pain and suffering
- Permanent disability or disfigurement
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Wrongful death damages (for surviving family members)
At Wilk Law Firm, we ensure your claim reflects the full impact of your injuries — not just your immediate losses, but also your long-term financial and emotional recovery.
