Construction Site Injury – Confidential Settlement In Franklin County, Alabama

Jeff Rickard settled a case for a young family man who was hurt on-the-job at a construction site. The case focused on the lack of safety precautions taken by a general contractor when cutting down a square steel column. That column fell and struck our client in the head. Despite the fact that he was wearing a hard hat, the impact caused a serious spinal cord injury, which resulted in partial paralysis. The client fought valiantly to learn to walk with assistance but he is not expected to walk again. The case focused on job site safety rules, regulations, communications and practices.
