Laws of Construction Accidents in Honolulu Hawaii

There are two general classes of Construction Accidents in Honolulu.

The first deals with all injuries sustained by individuals who are not employed at the construction site. These situations tend to involve a passer-by being hit by falling objects. In these situations, an "ordinary" personal injury lawsuit will usually be the result.

The second category of Construction Site accidents includes injuries suffered by construction workers on site. In most of these situations, the worker is limited to recovering worker's compensation. However, if there are multiple contractors on site, or if the injury was the result of a co-worker's actions, then the injured individual may be able to recover damages that surpass worker's compensation.
