Dallas’ Trusted Attorneys for Third-Party Construction Site Accident Claims

The Texas Department of Transportation urges motorists to prioritize safety when traveling through the state's hundreds of active construction zones. There were more than 25,000 automobile accidents in Texas work zones in 2022, resulting in 205 deaths and 788 serious injuries.

With close to two dozen active projects in the Dallas area, it is no surprise that construction zones are the most common cause of accidents in the city. Unfortunately, even though your employer is responsible for your safety, others on the job site may not be. These incidents can lead to property damage, injuries, and even fatalities. It is crucial to seek legal advice from trusted lawyers for third-party construction accidents so you can protect your rights.

Construction zones can be chaotic places with heavy machinery, narrow lanes, unclear signage, or plain negligence. In certain situations, the involved parties may file a third-party claim against another party responsible for the accident.

Third-party construction zone accident claims in Dallas arise when an injured person seeks compensation from someone other than their employer or co-worker if they are injured on the job. These claims typically involve parties such as subcontractors, equipment manufacturers, and drivers of vehicles passing through the construction area.
