Forklift Accidents: When An Injury Changes Your Life

Every year, a surprising number of workers are injured in forklift accidents at construction sites throughout Connecticut. Although they are heavy, forklifts are small, which makes them prone to tipping over on uneven surfaces. Further, their speed contributes to collisions with people or nonmoving objects.

If you or someone you love has been injured in a forklift accident, turn to the law firm of Williams, Walsh & O'Connor, LLC in Greater New Haven. Whether you are a worker who sustained catastrophic injuries or someone in your family was killed in a forklift accident, our attorneys will build a solid case in your favor and help you obtain maximum compensation. For a free consultation, call 203-896-4631 or 203-896-4631.

Early Investigation Is Critical

Proper maintenance and operator safety training are critical to minimizing forklift accidents. Unfortunately, some employers are more concerned with getting the job done quickly rather than getting it done safely. Our firm represents workers hurt by accidents involving:

  • Forklift rollovers
  • Falling off a forklift
  • Being hit by a forklift
  • Driver ejection
  • Unsafe driving conditions
  • Improper operation of a forklift
  • Being struck by falling debris

The sooner you contact our firm about your forklift injuries, the sooner we can launch a thorough investigation into the incident. We will look at the construction accident from all angles, not only identifying how the situation occurred, but also determining who was ultimately responsible.
