Construction Accident Lawyers in Harrisburg
Tens of Millions of Dollars Recovered for Pennsylvanians
As vital as construction work is, it comes with a staggering amount of risk to the people working in that field. Some of the top OSHA violations recorded each year tend to be safety violations that occur at construction sites, such as falls from scaffolding or being electrocuted. With roadway construction work alone, PennDOT recorded 1,216 crashes in 2023, in which 22 people were killed. As a whole, OSHA has stated that construction sites are where about 20% of all workplace deaths take place.
When a construction accident causes grievous injuries or the loss of a loved one, workers and their families should not be left to deal with high costs alone. At Handler, Henning & Rosenberg LLC, our construction accident lawyers in Harrisburg know how to help injured workers and their families recover compensation to deal with their medical costs, pain and suffering, disability, and other losses.

The “Fatal 4” of Construction Accidents
Each year, about three out of every five construction worker deaths are due to one of the following types of accidents:
- Falls, whether from height or into ditches, account for the top work safety violation each year, and that’s been the case for well over a decade.
- Electrical injuries and electrocution are a prevalent risk on construction sites, whether it’s from malfunctioning machinery or working directly with or around electrical wires
- Struck-by-object accidents can involve heavy equipment or building materials that fall on or swing into workers, often dealing severe or even fatal injuries
- Caught-in and caught-between accidents are when a limb or body gets pinned or crushed by objects or machinery
If you or a loved one has been in one of these or any other type of construction accident, one of our construction accident lawyers in Harrisburg can help you review your legal options and take action to recover the compensation you need and deserve.
