San Jose Attorney for Injured Iron Workers

Monterey Iron Worker Injury Lawyer

Iron workers have dangerous jobs. While they may do everything possible to act safely, accidents can happen, and when they do, they can cause serious injuries. Many injured iron workers believe that they are entitled to nothing more than workers' compensation benefits. However, there may be other options available. If you have been injured on the job as an iron worker, an experienced attorney can help you determine how to proceed and ensure that you take the correct steps to pursue compensation that will fully address the harm you have suffered due to workplace injuries.

San Jose iron worker injury attorney John J. Garvey, III can protect your rights and make sure you get the full extent of compensation you should receive for your work injury. He has represented a number of iron workers in personal injury claims, and he has also helped the surviving families of workers who suffered fatal injuries. He has the resources and experience to address your needs, and he will work to ensure that you will be able to identify the person or parties who were responsible for your injuries and receive the compensation that will allow you to move forward with your life.

Each Work Site Has Unique Dangers

Iron and bridge workers play a large and important role in the creation of highways, power lines, skyscrapers, and other projects essential to our communities. The conditions of every work site are different, and the potential construction accidents and injuries can change depending on the situation. Attorney Garvey helps injured workers who have suffered a wide range of iron worker injuries and accidents, including:

• Falls from scaffolding or ladders
• Burns from welding or explosions
• Cuts and other wounds from falling or flying items
• Injuries caused by defective equipment, including electrocution injuries or traumatic brain injuries
• Injuries caused by negligence, such as being struck by a vehicle or equipment that was operated incorrectly
• Injuries that occur due to defective protective equipment or failure to follow safety procedures

All injured workers are entitled to workers' compensation, but if someone besides an employer or coworker is responsible for the conditions that led to your accident, you may be eligible for compensation from a personal injury claim as well. We can work with a wide range of investigators and other experts to determine what happened in your case and identify the parties who were responsible. We can then work with you to pursue a third-party claim, which may allow you to recover additional compensation that will address damages such as lost income and pain and suffering.
