Construction Accident
The Construction industry is responsible for many work related injuries. Construction accidents provide the injured worker the same benefits as all other work related injuries with the exception that many times construction accidents allow the injured worker to file a lawsuit against an additional party or parties responsible for the injuries.
With construction accidents, if your injuries were due to the fault of a company or an employee of a company other than that of your employer, you may be eligible for damages greater than that provided under the Indiana Worker’s Compensation Act and may be entitled to present your case for damages to a jury. Violations of safety rules such as OSHA, ANSI or other similar rules, regulations or standards may permit an injured worker to bring a claim for money damages not provided under the Indiana Worker’s Compensation Act.
If you or a loved one has been injured in a construction accident and are not receiving the benefits you deserve, call or email us for a free case evaluation. We will investigate the construction accident to determine the cause and identify all liable parties. Our attorneys are known for their thorough preparation and dedication to their clients’ cases.
If you’ve been injured on the job, you can rely on the accomplished Indiana workers’compensation attorneys at Klezmer Maudlin.
How do we charge?
Our office will not charge for a consultation. If you decide to hire us, we charge no fee up front. Our attorney fee is set by Indiana law and Indiana law limits our fee to 20% of any recovery up to $50,000.00. For recoveries above $50,000.00, our fee is limited to 15% of any monies recovered above $50,000.00. With limited exceptions, we also will collect our out-of-pocket expenses from the recovery and not from you. If you hire us with an offer already given to you, we will typically agree not to charge an attorney fee unless we recover additional money. For example, if you hire us with an offer already of $5,000.00 and 3 months later we tell you we can only get you $5,000.00, we will typically not charge you. We will discuss this in more detail at the initial meeting and put our agreement in writing.
