Help, I Was Injured at a Construction Site Dumpster ! Your Legal Options, Here

Construction Accidents

Not many people know this, but the harmless dumpster that you walk past in any major city street can present a veritable hazard risk to individuals that work in construction. Dumpsters are used to store waste in order for the same to be cleared by getting picked up at a later date. The amount of building that occurs in construction sites means that many cement bags, wood and other materials need to be disposed of after they have served their purpose. In addition, if the area has a building that needs to be demolished, these dumpsters will fill up pretty fast with pieces of concrete that may have paint which could possibly contain lead, and the environment itself may have toxic waste that is not supposed to come into contact with humans or inhaled. It is because of this that dumpster injuries are common in construction sites, and occupation exposure to hazardous substances at construction sites may occur in a manner that is insidious, causing illness many years later. If you are a construction worker that was injured due to a dumpster and its contents, you may be able to substantial financial compensation, and we’re here to help with that.

Are you looking for a best construction worker injury attorney? Please call us NOW at (773) 825-3651 to learn more about your legal options for justice and compensation. the experienced construction injury lawyers at McCready Law bring to the table over 90 YEARS of combined legal experience helping individuals just like you get their due compensation from irresponsible and negligent individuals and corporations. What makes us different is the fact that we have extensive experience litigating claims, which is sometimes needed when the insurance company refuses to compensate you for all your injuries in a comprehensive manner, something that occurs many times. In addition to having a bilingual staff (hablamos Espanol), all legal claims are personally handled by attorneys, and not paralegals. Last, but not least, is the fact that we take on all cases on contingency fee basis, which means that there are NO UPFRONT FEES during any point in the processing of your case, as these are levied once we’ve recovered compensation on your behalf. Regardless of your current location in the country, we can help: please call us NOW at (773) 825-3651 for your 100% FREE consultation.

Some of the hazardous waste deposited into construction site dumpsters includes:

  1. Lead
  2. Battery acid
  3. Hydrocarbons
  4. Products containing fluorinated gases
  5. Asbestos
  6. Tar
  7. Varnish and paint

Disposing of Hazardous Waste in Construction Sites

It is important to note that according to OSHA work safety regulations, hazardous waste at construction sites must be deposited in a specific manner, following a protocol that ensures that no humans are harmed. What’s more is the fact that some of this hazardous waste is highly flammable, exposing workers nearby to the risk of explosion. Lead may become vaporized and workers may inhale the same, which can cause cognitive difficulties and systemic poisoning over time.

Experienced Construction Site Injury Attorneys – Call Us NOW!

If you believe that something at a construction site dumpster was the proximate cause of your injuries and that someone should have done something about the hazardous condition, please call us at (773) 825-3651 so we can help you get compensated after collecting sufficient amounts of evidence. Thanks, and we look forward to helping you.
