Who Is Liable for a Construction Accident Injury?
Third parties are individuals or entities not directly associated with an employee’s employer who may be liable for a worker’s injuries. When these parties are responsible for causing or contributing to a construction accident, an injured worker can file a personal injury lawsuit against them.
The following are some of the potential third parties that could be liable in a construction accident:
- General contractors: Responsible for maintaining site safety and following proper procedures.
- Subcontractors: Accountable for the safety of their specific work areas and tasks.
- Construction site owners: May be liable if hazardous conditions exist and they fail to address or warn about them.
- Equipment manufacturers: If faulty machinery or tools cause an injury, the manufacturer could be held accountable.
- Architects and engineers: Can be responsible if design flaws or structural issues contribute to an accident.
Determining liability often involves multiple parties because construction accidents can result from various factors. If you wish to assess the viability of your claim and learn more about the parties who may be liable, reach out to our construction accident lawyers in San Diego.
