Can I Sue for a Workplace Injury in Massachusetts?

Construction sites require hard hats for a reason - they are quite dangerous!

If you've been injured in a construction accident in Massachusetts, the first thing you should do is seek medical attention.

Different Types of Construction Accidents in Worcester Massachusetts

There are 2 basic categories of Construction Accidents in Worcester.

The first deals with all injuries suffered by individuals who are not employed at the construction site. These cases 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 type is when it is a construction worker that is injured on site. In most situations, the worker's only recourse is worker's compensation, but there are occasionally circumstances where the employee can collect more. If the employee was injured by a co-worker or the accident stemmed from a defective product, the construction worker may be able to recover greater damages.
