LipsigLawyers.com’s Thomas Moverman expressed his sympathies to the family and friends of a construction worker who was recently killed in an on-site accident. Moverman stated he hopes this incident will prompt further changes to benefit the safety of workers.
According to ABC 13, an employee was found under a pile of materials that fell on him after he was not seen for over 30 minutes. After his coworkers began looking for him, he was found pinned beneath the rubble. The construction workers began digging him out, and gave him CPR, but when EMS arrived, he was pronounced dead at the scene, the report said.
More than 20 percent of all work-related fatalities in 2013 were employed in the construction industry and one in five of the 4,821 reported fatalities in 2014 were also in the construction industry, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Injuries such as lacerations, bruising, broken or fractured bones and sometimes spinal or brain injuries can often be a result of these accidents as well.
Lipsig, Shapey, Manus & Moverman has been representing victims of construction accidents for years. They have successfully obtained millions in settlements for those victims and strongly believe in fighting for the compensation victims need and deserve. In one case, Attorney Thomas Moverman won a victim $2.6 million for a worker who injured his knee and back in a fall from defective scaffolding. The firm is currently looking to assist those individuals who have been injured in a construction accident. Certain individuals may be entitled to significant financial compensation.
“My clients’ lives and families are the most important aspect of what I do. I hope the lawsuits that I bring and the results I obtain will allow them to try to restore themselves both physically and personally,” said Moverman of the firm’s efforts.
