Answer:

Recently, a new client asked us, “Can I sue my employer in a construction accident case here in Orlando?” The answer is, most of the time, no, not through the typical negligence claim. Typically, construction accidents are covered by Workers’ Compensation.

However, there are specific circumstances where you may have a claim against your employer or you may have one against one of the other subcontractors on the job. That is why it is extremely important that you hire an experienced, knowledgeable trial attorney to review your case so that they can determine who is liable and what potential causes of action you may have. If you or a loved one has been injured in a construction accident, please contact us. We’d be happy to help.
