South Florida Construction Accident Lawyer

Construction is the nation's most–dangerous occupation, accounting for about 1 in every 5 fatal work injuries. More workers were killed on the job in Florida in 2008 than anywhere in the country except California and Texas.

South Florida Injury Attorney Gregg Hollander, and the professional staff at the Hollander Law Firm, fight for the rights of those seriously injured or killed at or near construction sites.

Construction companies, contractors, and property owners have a duty to follow work–safety regulations and to ensure the safety of employees, guests, motorists and the general public.

But holding companies and contractors responsible for the injury or death of an employee is a complex legal process that requires thorough investigation, in–depth knowledge of state and federal regulations, significant legal resources, and an attorney with the ability to stand up and fight some of the state's largest corporations and insurance companies.

As a Florida construction accident attorney, Gregg Hollander is a veteran trial lawyer who has succeeded in the courtroom against companies both large and small. With access to the investigators and the medical, legal and construction experts who are often critical to building such complex cases, the Hollander Law Firm has the resources necessary to pursue justice on behalf of clients who are injured or killed on the job.

Make no mistake about it: For many Florida employees, work is the most dangerous part of their day. A total of 5,071 fatal work injuries occurred in the United States during 2008, or 3.6 fatal work injuries for every 100,000 employees. Of those, 969 died as a result of construction–related accidents or injuries, according to the U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics.
