Your Indiana Construction Accident Lawyer was recently honored to receive an "AV" Rating from the Martindale Hubble Lawyer rating and referral service. The ratings are based on periodic surveys of Indiana Lawyers who have personal knowledge of the lawyer's expertise and ethics. An "AV" Rating is the highest possible, and is all the more valued because it reflects ones peers opinions about how the lawyer has conducted himself in the rough and tumble arena of personal injury litigation. Many thanks to those lawyers who participated in my evaluation, and I will strive to earn the rating.
There was an interesting article in the New York Times recently about the under reporting of workplace accidents, including construction accidents, to OSHA. Here is a link to the article. Basically, construction workers are afraid to report injuries to their employers because of a fear of being replaced by someone who is healthy and/or will keep quiet. Contractors are reluctant to turn worker's compensation injury claims into their insurance companies because they are concerned their rates will go up, or their EMR number will make General Contractors reluctant to hire them. It is AMAZING the influence insurance has on modern life, from health insurance to auto insurance. I wish I could say it was a good one, but it is not.
If you or a loved one has suffered a workplace injury, please let me know, and if I can't help you, I will find out who can. This is a good place to start. Our Indiana Construction Accident Lawyers represent injured construction workers throughout Indiana, including Indianapolis, Fort Wayne, South Bend, Terre Haute and Evansville. It is likely that even if you don't start with our firm, you will end up here, as the complexities of a construction accident lawsuit often prove too much for an inexperienced lawyer to handle. If you have a construction accident injury while working as an Ironworker, Mason, Electrician, Laborer, Crane Operator or other construction trade, we have "Been There-Done That" . Please contact our office for a FREE CASE EVALUATION.
