Individuals who work on New Jersey construction sites are often faced with conditions that are dangerous and can cause serious accidents. While there are federal and state regulations that are designed to provide safety on construction sites, some property owners and contractors ignore these regulations, which leads to preventable accidents with often-catastrophic injuries.
At Hendrickson & Edelstein, Attorneys at Law, we know that obtaining compensation is a critical part of the recovery process for victims of construction accidents and their families. Each of our lawyers has more than 35 years of experience handling personal injury and workers' compensation claims in New Jersey, including those that result from construction accidents.

Common Job Site Injuries

- Falls from heights
- Falling objects and debris
- Ladder and scaffolding accidents
- Crane and forklift accidents
- Burns and explosions
- Equipment defects
- Motor vehicle accidents on-site and off-site
While workers' compensation benefits are often available for injured workers, there may also be the option of filing a third-party claim if negligence was involved in the accident. In order to ensure that you receive all of the benefits that you deserve after an accident, it is important to discuss all of your options with an experienced attorney.
