Crane Accidents

San Antonio, Texas Crane Accident Lawyer

Crane accidents are some of the most severe and devastating construction site injuries that occur on construction sites. Due to the sheer size, weight, and loads involved in crane operation, crane accidents account for a disproportionately large percentage of construction site injuries and deaths.

With a boom in construction in San Antonio and throughout Texas, crane accident rates are on the rise. After an injury, it’s important to know your legal rights. Often times, the responsible party of their insurer will ask you to sign paperwork or accept a settlement that is grossly inadequate. Agreeing to an early settlement or accepting payment in any form can make it legally impossible for you to recover fair and just compensation.

Can a San Antonio crane accident lawyer help if my employer has worker’s compensation insurance?

While employers are typically protected from lawsuits if they have workers compensation insurance, we have found many cases in which the employer can still be held liable. Crane accidents usually involve complex facts that may show your injury was the fault of many parties, for example: The employer, contractors, subcontractors, individuals, the crane manufacturer, the crane maintenance company, third-parties, and others.

If you were injured in a crane accident as a guest, patron, or un-related spectator, you may have a direct claim against several parties as well. An experienced San Antonio work injury lawyer can discover responsible parties and hold them accountable.
