Florida Workers Compensation Attorneys

The fact that construction work involves greater danger than most other occupations does not mean you bear all the risk and cannot get significant compensation for your injuries and damages after a construction or worksite accident. Your Florida employer has a duty to take all reasonable actions necessary to protect workers' safety, and we are experienced personal injury lawyers who hold employers accountable for negligence. Occupational  Safety and Health Administration’s (OSHA) regulations, while numerous and strict, are clear and employers who fail to comply with them act negligently, carelessly and often with an eye more towards profits than safety. At the Miami construction and worksite accident attorneys of Hoffman, Larin & Agnetti, we know your rights, and have been working to obtain compensation and a fair resolution for injured workers for more than 20 years.

If you were injured or your loved one was killed in a worksite or construction accident, the employer is usually not the only responsible party. Often times, when our firm conducts a thorough investigation into the causes of a construction accident, we discover that a third party's negligence played a role: an equipment manufacturer, a subcontractor or a delivery service, for instance. We also discover that sometimes the employer failed to cover construction workers with workers' compensation insurance.

Our firm has the skills, experience and proven record of success you can trust to guide you in seeking maximum financial recovery after a worksite or construction accident, including:

  • Falls caused by improperly anchored scaffolding
  • Wall collapse due to improper bracing of cement structures
  • Falls through improperly marked and secured skylights
  • Falls into unsealed elevator shafts
  • Crane accidents and other injuries caused by falling equipment, materials or debris
  • Explosions caused by faulty air compressors
  • Vehicle and equipment rollover accidents
  • Chemical exposure on the job site
  • Trench collapse injury and death
  • Burns and electrocutions caused by contractor or subcontractor negligence

If you were seriously injured or a loved one died in a worksite or construction accident caused by a negligent contractor or subcontractor or OSHA safety violations, we encourage you to consult with the construction accident attorneys at Hoffman, Larin & Agnetti for a free consultation.
