Carpenters and iron workers are two of the most commonly depended on construction workers on the job site. Both of these types of workers suffer very real risks of serious, or even fatal, injury on the job due to the nature of their duties.
Iron workers are typically involved early in a project where only the steel skeleton of the building may be in place, which exposes them to a more dangerous work environment than other workers whose role in the construction of the building has them on-site at a later point. Carpenters are also involved early in a project, where an unfinished project can present a greater risk of injury.
If you or a loved one has been injured on-the-job as a carpenter or iron worker, the personal injury attorneys at Raphaelson & Levine can help.
