Cleveland Work Injury Lawsuit Attorney · Ohio Construction Site Accident Lawyer

It is very rare that a building, road, or landscape construction project will have only one contracted construction crew scheduled at a time. Overlaps in scheduling or unanticipated delays almost always mean that construction workers and subcontractors must share a cramped and dangerous job site. If you were injured while working on the job in Ohio, you are typically entitled to seek workers' compensation benefits through the Ohio Bureau of Workers' Compensation (BWC) system. You may also be entitled to seek additional money damages from another subcontractor who may be held liable for the accident. You need an experienced attorney to help you find all available compensation and help you get your life back to normal — or as close to it as possible.

Fighting on behalf of injured workers for full and fair compensation is part of our legacy at Spangenberg Shibley & Liber. For more than 65 years, our trial attorneys have taken on the complex cases involving third-party contractor and subcontractor liability. We are proud of our record of helping shape Ohio workplace injury law regarding contractor liability — fighting for Ohio's workers. The majority of our personal injury and wrongful death litigation clients come to us by way of referral from workers' compensation law firms. Attorneys throughout Ohio know that we have the experience, knowledge and resources to fight aggressively for justice — and it is often a very long and bitter fight.

Do You Have a Third-Party Injury Claim Against a Contractor?

When you call us for a no-cost, confidential consultation, you will have the opportunity to talk to some of the most experienced contractor liability attorneys in Ohio. We will evaluate your construction accident or workplace injury claim and give you a full, honest assessment of whether you should pursue additional damages from a contractor or subcontractor on the job site. If you don't have an experienced Ohio workplace injury attorney helping you with your workers' compensation claim, we will refer you to one and work side by side with that lawyer to help you get the full and fair compensation to which you and your family are entitled.

Free Consultation · Contingency Fees · Spanish and Ukrainian Interpreters
