Construction sites are infamously dangerous and people get injured when they least expect it.

If you've been hurt in a Construction Accident in Iowa, you should first seek medical attention.

Laws of Construction Accidents in Cedar Rapids Iowa

There are two main groups of Construction Accidents in Cedar Rapids.

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 category of Construction Site accidents encompasses injuries sustained by construction workers on site. In most of these cases, 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 person may be able to recover damages that exceed worker's compensation.
