Scaffolding accidents can occur due to many different reasons. Whether the scaffold was constructed improperly, there were problems with guardrails or there were other defects contributing to the on-the-job accident, our attorneys and experts may attempt to identify the cause and demonstrate liability. This will enable our law firm to possibly pursue third-party liability compensation on your behalf, in addition to workers' compensation benefits.
