Laws Regarding Construction Accidents in Melbourne Florida

There are two general classes of Construction Accidents in Melbourne.

The first category of construction accidents are those in which persons not employed at the construction site are injured. Typically, these are visitors, or people who simply happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. These can usually 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. In certain situations, however, like when a co-employee is the cause of the accident, the injured party may be able to recover a greater amount.
