September 26, 2024 – Matt Albrecht
After a construction site accident, it is crucial to seek immediate medical attention for any injuries. This will serve both to diagnose and document injuries in a timely manner. It is also important to report the incident to your employer or the relevant personnel on the construction site and to document the scene of the accident and any injuries sustained. It is also wise to promptly contact an experienced construction accident attorney to assess the appropriate next steps to pursue compensation and appropriate follow-up treatment.
