If you were injured on a construction site or if your loved one was killed in a construction accident, we offer our sincerest condolences. At Charles G. Monnett III & Associates, we have spent more than 37 years fighting for the rights of catastrophically injured workers and their families. Our Charlotte construction accident attorneys understand the challenges you face and how to navigate the legal process in an effort to recover the maximum compensation you are owed.

- Crane accidents

Common Construction Accident Injuries
Injuries due to construction site accidents are often severe, resulting in crushed or amputated limbs, total or partial paralysis, spinal cord injuries, burns, vision loss, hearing damage, back and neck injuries, loss of mobility, and other permanent disabilities. Many construction accidents lead to death.
Some common construction-related injuries include:
- Back injuries
- Broken bones
- Crush injuries
- Death
- Electrocution
- Equipment failures
- Falls
- Forklift and warehouse injuries
- Manufacturing plant injuries
- Occupational diseases
- Repetitive use injuries
- Traumatic brain injury
Misuse of heavy machinery and tools, falling debris, unstable surfaces, great heights, and exposed wires, among many other hazards, put construction workers at a near-constant risk of being injured.
Whether through a hearing or insurance settlement, Charles G. Monnett III & Associates can seek maximum compensation for your medical expenses and future care, loss of wages and lost earning potential, and other any damages allowed by law. When these accidents are the result of negligence by a third party, we also pursue additional compensation through the civil justice system.
