WORK INJURY? YOU MAY HAVE TWO CLAIMS

Trench Collapse Left You With a Brain Injury?

Trench collapses are among the deadliest construction accidents. Even when workers survive burial, the lack of oxygen causes devastating hypoxic brain injuries. OSHA requires shoring, sloping, and protective systems - when contractors skip these, they're liable.

Two Claims = Maximum Recovery

Most lawyers only file one claim. We pursue BOTH to maximize your compensation.

CLAIM #1

Workers' Compensation

  • No-fault coverage - you get benefits regardless of who caused the accident
  • Covers ALL medical bills related to your brain injury
  • Wage loss benefits (2/3 of average weekly wage)
  • Specific loss benefits for permanent impairment
CLAIM #2

Third-Party Personal Injury

  • Sue negligent parties OTHER than your employer
  • Recover pain and suffering damages (not available in WC)
  • Full lost wages - past AND future
  • No arbitrary caps on your recovery

Brain Injuries from This Type of Accident

Hypoxic brain injury from burial
TBI from dirt/debris impact
Anoxic brain damage
Skull fractures
Long-term cognitive impairment

How These Accidents Happen

Trench wall collapse
No protective shoring installed
Adjacent equipment vibrations
Water accumulation weakening walls
Improper sloping

Who Can You Sue? (Third-Party Liability)

Beyond your employer's Workers' Comp insurance, these parties may owe you damages:

General contractor (OSHA violations)
Excavation subcontractor
Engineering company
Shoring equipment supplier
Site safety company

We work with our highly experienced Personal Injury colleagues to pursue these claims on your behalf.
