Helping Forklift Accident Victims Procure Compensation

There are a number of things that can go wrong for forklifts on a construction site, from mechanical failures to accidents caused by operators. Whatever the conditions were that led to your work injury, you have the right to hold the negligent party accountable for your injuries. The Law Office of John J. Garvey, III, is prepared to handle accidents involving a number of factors, including:

• Forklift runs into a worker
• Backup failure
• Forklift crash into another forklift
• Over-extended load collapse

Almost all construction accident victims are entitled to workers compensation, but there is a limited amount you can recover from workers comp. If your forklift accident was caused by someone other than your employer or a co-worker, you may be eligible to file a personal injury claim, which has no cap at all.
