Construction Injuries

A construction site is a dangerous place. But property owners and employers owe it to those working there to abide by safety regulations strictly. When they fail to do so, catastrophic injuries can occur.

If a construction accident has changed your life, we can help. At Polito & Quinn, LLC, our goal is to renew our clients' peace of mind – and to help them prepare for an uncertain future.

For a free consultation, call 1.860.447.3300 or contact us online.

Both of our attorneys have over 20 years of experience practicing law, are AV–Rated* and Board–Certified, and work one–on–one with each client. Hands–on attorneys, they represent each client personally.

If your injury was caused by someone who doesn't work for the same employer as you, then you can sue that other business. You will not be subject to normal workers' comp limits, so you have a better chance of recovering a fair settlement.

This may hold true if your injury involved:

• Unsafe scaffolding or ladders that fall
• Defective machinery
• Forklifts or other heavy machinery operated by someone outside the business you work for
• Insufficient safety equipment
• Collapsed trenches
• Volatile chemicals or hazardous materials like chlorine gas or asbestos

And if another contractor cannot be held liable, we will investigate whether the property owner bears some or all of the responsibility for your injuries.

At Polito & Quinn, LLC, we will explore every possible source of compensation for your construction accident. We have handled injuries ranging from broken bones to spinal cord and brain injuries, from amputations to wrongful death.

We will work hard to hold people and companies responsible for injuries caused by their carelessness.

Personable, attentive, approachable advocates, Attorneys Humbert Polito, and Michael Quinn will respond promptly to any questions or concerns. To schedule a free consultation at our Waterford, Connecticut office, please call 1.860.447.3300 or just contact us online.

We are proud of our long record of successful verdicts and settlements achieved for the benefit of our clients.
