    • Take as many pictures of the accident site as you can. You can even use your cell phone camera to do this. Also take pictures of the equipment involved. The more evidence you have the better a claim you can make
    • Report the accident to a law enforcement agency immediately
    • Make sure you have the name of the property owner of the site

    Filing Workers’ Compensation

    After a construction accident, workers’ compensation can be filed without the help of a lawyer; however, unless the incident was minor, it is advisable to avoid this and rather let a construction site accident lawyer in Jupiter, Florida take care of this complicated process.

    • Personal injury claims often enable you to recover more including punitive damages.

I didn’t have any resources I could ask…so based on reviews just like the one I’m writing now, i made the decision to go with this firm. It was the best decision I could have made. “
