Roof and Ladder Falls

Pennsylvania Construction Worker Accident Attorneys

Any construction worker or industrial site worker must deal with difficult, and sometimes dangerous, conditions on a regular basis. These conditions frequently involve power tools, heavy lifting and working at great heights. Falls from roofs and ladders often happen on construction sites due to equipment defects or to carelessness by other workers, construction foremen or property owners.

At the Philadelphia law firm of Hill & Associates, P.C., our lawyers represent the victims of roof and ladder falls who have suffered serious injuries as a result. We also represent the family members of construction workers who have been involved in fatal job site accidents. With more than 20 years of experience in personal injury, our attorneys work hard to help clients maximize the compensation they receive for medical bills, lost wages and pain and suffering.

Common Injuries from Roof and Ladder Falls

In any construction site accident, it may be difficult to identify responsible parties and their potential liabilities. Our firm will diligently seek out this information and will hold responsible parties accountable for injuries associated with a fall from a roof or ladder. Common injuries that result from workplace falls may include:

  • Broken bones
  • Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
  • Neck and back injuries
  • Traumatic brain injuries
  • Other catastrophic injuries
  • Wrongful death

We will ask the right questions about the accident and how it may have been caused. Was the roof or ladder safe for a worker to be on it? Were any guard rails in place? Were safety harnesses and safety ropes being used? Was the equipment properly manufactured and inspected?
