A Construction Site Is the Most Dangerous Workplace
If you are a coal worker or construction worker in the coal fields of Western Kentucky, you already know the dangers you face on the job. You go to work everyday facing the possibility of an accident caused by old equipment, defective power tools and negligence on the part of other workers and subcontractors. If you have been injured while working in a coal mine, on a construction site, or on another building project, workers' compensation probably won't be enough. Talk to an experienced lawyer who can help you obtain compensation from any third parties that may be responsible for your injuries.

Let Us Help You Maximize Your Injury Benefits
Workers' comp does not hold anyone accountable for negligence. The amount of insurance benefits you receive while you are out of work is limited to certain medical benefits and a percentage of your typical earnings. Many injured workers find that this is not enough to cover all of their expenses and lost earnings.
We are a personal injury law firm that can help you obtain full and fair benefits from any third parties who may be liable for your construction accident injuries. That means filing a lawsuit against the manufacturer of defective equipment, the construction site owner or other subcontractors that caused your accident. The amount you receive from these types of actions can be significantly higher than workers' compensation benefits.
We can even put you in touch with an experienced workers' comp lawyer to file your initial claim or appeal a denied claim.
