Construction Accidents

Connecticut Construction Site Accident Lawyer

Every year, hundreds of construction accidents occur in Connecticut, causing serious injuries and sometimes death. When these happen the survivors and their families are entitled to compensation for medical costs, lost income, and suffering.

For 39 years, Jacobs, Jacobs & Shannon have helped construction workers and their families in moments of crisis. We help them obtain the financial resources they need to recover from their accidents and rebuild their lives.

Maximizing Compensation From All Sources

At Jacobs, Jacobs & Shannon, we help our clients maximize the compensation they receive from all sources. As workers compensation attorneys, we help our clients obtain their rightful benefits from the workers compensation system. But in many cases, that is only one source of compensation.

If the mishap occurred due to the negligence of a third-party, then our attorneys can take action against that party or parties who bare the responsibility for the accident. For example, the client's injuries may have occurred in a truck accident caused by a careless sub-contractor or delivery vehicle driver. It may have resulted from a defective tool, ladder, or scaffold. There may have been multiple liable parties.

Seeking Full and Fair Compensation

Whatever the circumstances, Jacobs, Jacobs & Shannon seeks to maximize the total compensation our clients receive from all persons and parties responsible for the accident.

A construction site accident can be minor, but it can result in a catastrophic injury such as a spinal cord injury, brain injury, or paralysis. The lawyers at Jacobs, Jacobs & Shannon have extensive experience representing clients in these challenging and difficult cases. Because the true extent of injury is not always obvious in these serious cases, we carefully evaluate and investigate these injuries using the expertise of medical consultants and other specialized technical and forensic personnel.

Our goal is always to achieve full compensation in construction site accident cases, from all possible sources.
