An Orange County Accident Attorney on Construction Accidents

There are many different laws and regulations governing construction sites and workplaces. For this reason, you will want an experienced Orange County accident lawyer to help guide you through the legal process to collect the damages you are entitled to.

Having a Successful Orange County Construction Accident Attorney Represent You

Typically, a construction site may include many different parties who may be responsible for your injuries. A major task for an Orange County accident lawyer is to figure out exactly who bears responsibility and what type of lawsuit to bring:

• Owner Liability. For smaller projects, the owner of the property may be directly responsible for any injuries or accidents. However, an Orange County accident lawyer can explain to you that for most major projects, the landowner may pass on potential liability to contractors.
• Contractor Liability. Contractors generally have a legal duty to perform safe work. In addition, contractors may carry their own insurance and liability policies. An Orange County accident lawyer can help you sort out the different contractors and sub-contractors who may be responsible for an injury.
• Engineering Defect. For poor and unsafe designs, you may be able to sue the engineer or architect on the project for design defect.

After determining who to sue and the type of lawsuit to bring, your Orange County accident lawyer can assist you in calculating the amount of damages you can collect and negotiating with insurance companies.
