Construction Accident Lawyer in Arizona – Scottsdale & Tempe Injury Attorney

Construction sites are among the most dangerous workplaces in Arizona. Whether you are a worker, contractor, or even a bystander, construction accidents can cause life-changing injuries. If you’ve been hurt on a job site due to negligence, unsafe conditions, or equipment failures, you may be entitled to significant compensation.

At Beam Law PLC, we fight for injured construction workers and third parties across Scottsdale, Tempe, and the surrounding areas. With 15+ years of legal experience, we handle workers’ compensation claims, third-party lawsuits, and wrongful death cases related to construction accidents.

Construction sites are high-risk environments, with heavy machinery, dangerous tools, and hazardous conditions. Accidents often happen due to falls from heights, including scaffolding collapses, ladder falls, and unsecured roofing work. Other common causes include electrocutions from exposed wiring, power lines, and defective electrical equipment, as well as machinery accidents involving malfunctioning forklifts, cranes, and heavy equipment.

Workers also face risks from trench and building collapses caused by unsafe excavation practices and structural failures. Falling objects, such as tools, debris, and building materials, frequently result in injuries, and exposure to toxic substances like harmful chemicals and asbestos is another serious hazard. These accidents can lead to catastrophic injuries such as traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, amputations, and burns.

Depending on the circumstances of your accident, different legal claims may apply. Construction workers injured on the job may qualify for workers’ compensation benefits and may also have a claim against third parties who contributed to their injuries. Contractors and subcontractors who are not direct employees but were injured due to negligence may be able to file a personal injury lawsuit.

Bystanders and pedestrians injured near a construction site due to falling debris, unsecured scaffolding, or hazardous conditions may have a claim against the construction company. Families of workers killed on construction sites may be entitled to survivor benefits and wrongful death settlements.

Workers’ compensation provides benefits for medical expenses, lost wages, and disability benefits regardless of who caused the accident, but it limits the ability to sue an employer directly. Third-party lawsuits allow injured workers to sue outside parties responsible for their injuries, such as equipment manufacturers, subcontractors, or property owners.

These claims can include pain and suffering, emotional distress, and future medical costs. Many injured workers miss out on additional compensation because they assume workers’ compensation is their only option. An experienced construction accident lawyer can help determine if a third-party lawsuit is possible.

Depending on the details of your case, you may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, including hospitalization, surgeries, rehabilitation, and ongoing treatment. Lost wages and future earnings may also be recovered, compensating for missed work and reduced earning capacity.

Pain and suffering damages account for emotional and physical distress, and disability and disfigurement compensation is available if injuries result in permanent limitations. If a worker is killed, wrongful death benefits provide compensation for surviving family members.
