Unlike other professions, working in the construction industry often involves a certain amount of risk due to the heavy machinery and potentially dangerous situations that come with the trade. At the Law Offices of Thomas Hoegh, we have represented blue and white collar workers throughout the San Fernando Valley since 1985. We understand the significant impact a serious construction accident injury can have on your career, so we take a detail-oriented approach to protect your rights and interests.
Dedicated, Aggressive Representation
We represent unionized construction workers in pursuing third-party claims or disability retirement benefits as well as non-union construction workers, contractors or subcontractors in pursuing workers' compensation under California workers' comp laws.
You will owe no attorney's fees unless we win your case.
Our experience includes those who have suffered serious injuries due to:
- Crane accidents
- Forklift accidents
- Scaffolding falls or collapses
- Equipment failures
- Injuries caused by defective products
- Electrical accidents
We are proud of our commitment to preparing each case for trial from the very beginning, though we have often obtained successful results through settlement. Our lawyer has handled cases at both the trial and appellate level, and we are always prepared to represent your interests in court if opposing parties refuse to settle.
Handling Third-Party Liability Claims
While most California construction workers have workers' compensation built into their employment contracts, you may not realize that you may be eligible for additional compensation following a construction accident caused by third-party negligence. If someone other than your employer caused your accident, you could be entitled to seek damages through a third-party civil lawsuit.
The Law Offices of Thomas Hoegh has significant trial experience handling third-party claims on behalf of construction workers who have suffered due to individual or corporate negligence. Whether your injuries were caused by a careless contractor or due to a defective product, we can help you hold all liable parties to account. We will examine your case in detail to identify all liable parties and then aggressively protect your right to full compensation.
