Construction Accidents
Our team of Chicago construction trial lawyers has collective experience in excess of 200 years of handling complex construction injury cases.
We recognize the importance of getting involved early to properly investigate the causes of construction accidents and to properly protect our clients and their families.
Our construction accident personal injury lawyers are skilled at acquiring thorough and complete investigations including when necessary, obtaining court orders to take jobsite equipment out of service for inspection, obtain access to jobsites, or requiring construction companies or the insurance companies to turn over all contracts, statements, and other relevant documents at the onset of the investigation.
