- Personal Injury 101: Construction Injuries, 2023
- You should contact an attorney as soon as you are able to do so or have a family member do it for you. It is helpful to have an attorney on board right away so the evidence can be gathered timely. Your attorney’s fee is going to be the same whether you hire an attorney the day after the injury or several weeks or months or even a year after the injury. There are many benefits to getting an attorney on board right away including having an advocate supporting you, better preserving evidence, and serving as your guide to help you with the case. GLP Attorneys will be with you from injury to recovery., When should I contact an attorney after being hurt on a construction site?, Construction, 2021
- Yes, you can absolutely hire two different attorneys. You can have an attorney for your Labor and Industry claim and then go hire a different attorney for your construction site injury case. You really do want to have an experienced attorney who knows construction law helping you navigate the process in bringing a claim and filing a lawsuit against any potential at-fault parties for your construction site injury case. It is important for you to make sure that the attorney you are retaining understands construction law and again that can be two different attorneys – one working on your L&I claim that will started right away for medical bills and time loss plus an injury attorney who is advocating for you with at-fault third parties., Construction Injuries: “Can I hire two different attorneys for my two claims?”, 2021
- If your co-worker is responsible for your injury, according to Washington law you cannot sue a coworker just like you cannot sue your employer. But you should reach out to a personal injury attorney, that has experience working in construction to determine if there are any other at-fault parties that may have been responsible leading up to or causing the injury that occurred., Construction Injuries: “What if my coworker is responsible for my construction or workplace injury?”, Construction, 2021
- When it comes to compensation for your injuries, first you will file a labor and industry claim that will cover your medical bills, time loss, and potentially any future for a pension or a permanent/partial disability. But that is the extent that labor and industry will cover. If you have a claim where someone else is at fault and negligence can be established, then the compensation will come from a third-party case. The third-party case is against the at-fault party on the construction site. This could be a general contractor, another subcontractor, or someone else who failed to do their job to make sure the worksite was safe. If these circumstances exist, then a claim can be made for you to receive compensation for your injuries. This would include not only your medical bills and time loss at 100%, but also the impact of your injuries, pain and suffering you are experiencing in the past, present, and future. The compensation is much greater in a third-party case., Construction Injuries: "Who is responsible to compensate me for my injuries?”, Construction, 2021

- Over a half million dollar settlement by holding a construction company responsible for the wrongful death of the only child (a son) of an immigrant family. Although the son was an adult, and Washington law limits damages for the wrongful death of a child over the age of 18, she was able to prove the parents were substantially financially dependant upon their son for support at the time of his death. This allowed the case to be settled and allowed the parents to obtain damages for parental grief, for the loss of their son's companionship, and for the destruction of the parent-child relationship.
