Have You Been Injured in a Construction Accident?
Construction work is dangerous. Accidents happen that can cause serious injuries, and may even lead to becoming disabled. Back injuries, head injuries, spinal cord injuries, neck injuries and other injuries on the job can require extensive medical care and rehabilitation.
When a construction accident injury happens, it is critical to seek legal representation from The Law Offices of Dianne Sawaya as early as possible. The insurance company may approach you and try to settle your claim quickly and for little compensation. That would leave you without enough money to cover your current and future medical expenses and wage loss. At this time of turmoil and confusion, you could unknowingly lose your rights if you don’t have proper legal representation. You need an experienced construction injury attorney like Dianne Sawaya to go to work for you.
If you’ve been seriously hurt on the job, you may be entitled to worker’s compensation benefits. If you think another person’s negligence (such as a contractor, subcontractor or product manufacturer) caused a construction accident that left you hurt through no fault of your own, you may be able to file a third-party liability claim to seek additional compensation for your injuries.
When developing your construction accident case, Dianne Sawaya’s construction injury lawyers consult medical professionals, electricians, construction safety experts, fire experts and other professionals who understand construction and job sites. Our construction injury attorneys stay in close contact with you, acting as your trusted adviser as we work through each step of the process together.
Call now at (303) 758-4777 or email us for a free evaluation of your construction injury case.
There’s no obligation. A construction accident lawyer will determine your legal options and explain how we think you should proceed. If we work together, we won’t charge you a fee unless we get you a settlement or jury award.

There’s no special definition of “serious personal injury,” and everyone likely considers their injury to be serious. But when evaluating a case in terms of negotiating with an insurance company or preparing for trial, there are certain hallmarks of a serious injury.
