We have handled construction accident claims involving injuries ranging from minor injuries to catastrophic paralysis, loss-of-limb and burn injuries, as well as wrongful death. Our experience spans almost all types of accidents, including:

  • Scaffold and ladder accidents
  • Equipment and tool accidents
  • Falls and falling objects

We handle third party claims involving a broad range of parties, including construction workers, equipment operators, manufacturers, hired safety experts, architects and developers.

When an Out-of-Court Settlement Isn’t the Answer

Call a litigation firm and, chances are, you will be told that construction site accident cases are best resolved through an out-of-court settlement. At Gates, Gonter, Guy, Proudfoot & Muench LLP, we believe that courtroom litigation is often avoided simply for convenience or because of attorneys’ discomfort with the thought of going to trial.

Construction site accidents can involve six- and seven-figure dollar amounts. In order to safeguard your interests, you need an attorney who is willing to go to court when necessary. We have handled hundreds of trials and have brought approximately 400 trials fully to verdict. To schedule a no-charge consultation with experienced and knowledgeable trial lawyers, please contact our firm.
