Laws Regarding Construction Accidents in Suffolk Virginia

All Construction Accidents can fall into two general categories in Suffolk.

The first category of construction accidents are those in which persons not employed at the construction site are injured. Normally, these are visitors, or people who simply happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. These can typically be handled through a standard personal injury lawsuit.

The second category of Construction Accidents includes all accidents sustained by employees on the construction site. Most of the time, these workers are compensated through workman's compensation.
