Serious Construction Accidents in Mississippi
Proven Lawyers. Multi Million Dollar Results.
Construction sites are some of the most dangerous workplaces in Mississippi. One mistake, one shortcut, or one ignored safety rule can change a life forever.
At Chhabra, Gibbs & Gustavis, P.A., we represent construction workers and families after catastrophic job site injuries. Our firm has secured many multi-million dollar settlements and verdicts in serious construction accident cases across Mississippi.
We know how these cases work. More importantly, we know how to win them.
Common Causes of Construction Accidents
Construction accidents rarely happen by chance. They usually happen because someone failed to follow the rules.
We regularly handle cases involving:
• Falls from scaffolding, ladders, or roofs
• Crane and heavy equipment accidents
• Forklift and machinery failures
• Trench collapses
• Electrocution and power line contact
• Falling objects and debris
• Explosions and fires
• Unsafe job site conditions
These accidents often involve multiple companies, including general contractors, subcontractors, equipment manufacturers, and property owners. That matters, because it can mean additional sources of compensation beyond workers’ compensation.
Catastrophic Injuries We See on Construction Sites
Serious construction accidents often cause permanent injuries that affect every part of a person’s life.
We handle cases involving:
• Traumatic brain injuries
• Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
• Amputations
• Severe burns
• Crush injuries
• Multiple fractures
• Wrongful death
These are not small claims. Medical bills add up fast. Lost income can last a lifetime. Pain, limitations, and loss of independence are real and lasting.
Multi-Million Dollar Construction Injury Settlements
Insurance companies take construction accident cases seriously when they know the lawyers do too.
Our firm has secured many multi-million dollar settlements for injured construction workers and grieving families. We do not rush cases. We build them properly.
That includes:
• Full investigation of the job site
• Expert testimony from engineers and safety professionals
• Life care plans for future medical needs
• Aggressive negotiation and trial preparation
When insurers see we are ready for trial, they pay attention.
You May Have a Claim Beyond Workers’ Compensation
Many injured workers believe workers’ compensation is their only option. That is often wrong.
You may have a third-party claim if your injury involved:
• A negligent subcontractor
• Faulty equipment or tools
• Unsafe property conditions
• Defective machinery
• Violations of safety standards
Third party construction accident claims allow recovery for pain and suffering, full lost wages, and future damages that workers’ compensation does not cover.
