Carthage & Asheboro Construction Accident Lawyers

Statistically, construction jobs are among the most dangerous in the world. Workers routinely suffer broken bones, deep cuts, serious burns, permanent back injuries, and even loss of limbs. Many of these injuries result in extensive medical bills. Some injuries are permanent and prevent a worker from returning to his or her livelihood.

The attorneys at Rowland & Yauger, Attorneys & Counselors at Law, help construction workers understand their rights following a work site accident and recover the compensation they are entitled to by law.

Construction Accident Claims

Tragically, some construction site accidents result in death, most often by electrocution or long falls. If you have lost a loved one in a construction accident, you may be able to file a wrongful death lawsuit. Our experienced and aggressive personal injury lawyers will review the facts of your case and recommend a course of action.

We can help you determine if you have a legitimate workers’ compensation benefits claim and whether it makes sense to pursue a personal injury lawsuit. Generally speaking, North Carolina law prohibits an injured employee from suing his or her employer for personal injury damages. There are some situations, however, where a third party — a subcontractor or manufacturer of a defective product, for example — can be held financially responsible for an accident that results in serious injury.

Our experienced Carthage & Asheboro construction accident lawyers can review the facts of your case and recommend the best steps to take next.

Carthage & Asheboro Workplace Accident Attorney

Our attorneys work with the full scope of construction site accidents, including:

  • Falls from scaffolding or ladders
  • Electrical utility accidents involving transformers or wires
  • Heavy equipment accidents
  • Injuries caused by falling debris or objects
  • Defective power tools or equipment

We accept all construction site accident cases on a contingency fee basis, which means you do not pay attorney’s fees unless we obtain a recovery for you. That applies whether we pursue a workers’ compensation claim or a personal injury lawsuit.

Common Construction Accident Injuries

Construction sites are full of hazards, and when accidents happen, workers can suffer serious injuries that affect their health, livelihood, and future. At Rowland & Yauger, we understand the toll these injuries take on workers and their families. Some of the most common construction-related injuries include:

  • Broken Bones – Falls from scaffolding, ladders, or unstable surfaces often lead to fractures that require surgery and long recovery times.
  • Head and Brain Injuries – Falling objects, slips, or heavy equipment accidents can cause concussions or traumatic brain injuries, affecting memory, coordination, and overall well-being.
  • Spinal Cord Injuries – A severe fall or being struck by heavy machinery can result in long-term mobility issues, including paralysis.
  • Burns and Electrocution – Exposure to electrical wiring, chemicals, or explosions can leave workers with painful and life-altering burns.
  • Lacerations and Crush Injuries – Sharp tools, heavy materials, and machinery malfunctions can lead to deep cuts, amputations, or crushed limbs.

Recovering from a construction accident can be overwhelming, but you don’t have to face it alone. If you or a loved one suffered an injury on the job, seeking legal guidance can help you understand your options and pursue the compensation you deserve.
