Construction Site Excavation Injuries

In the Greater Boston area and throughout the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, Excavation Site Injuries are a common type of construction site injury. Excavation sites in regards to construction often involve digging holes, tunnels or trenches in a designated area for site development, or sometimes site exploration. These holes or ditches can be dangerous and pose as a falling hazard if not properly maintained, or if the correct safety precautions are not followed. In these cases, serious injury and sometimes death can occur. A typical set of facts is that rain falls in an area, the excess water is not removed, work site conditions become excessively muddy and wet, and serious injuries occur. Another common situation is that someone walks, rides a bike or drives along a street, and they fall into an excavation hole that has been improperly and negligently maintained, causing them to suffer devastating injuries. These injuries can produce numerous negative effects that are physically, emotionally and financially distressing. Our seasoned attorneys at Altman & Altman have the skills and mastery to help you get through the adversity and obtain compensation for your excavation site injuries.

If you have been injured in an excavation accident, it is in your best interest to contact an experienced personal injury lawyer after you receive medical attention. If the injury is a result of someone's negligence, you may be entitled to recovery. Negligence is any conduct that creates an unreasonable risk of harm to others and is actionable when that risk creates a legally cognizable injury. Many, if not most, excavation accidents occur due to someone's negligent maintenance of the excavation site.
