In addition to workers compensation benefits, a worker injured on a construction site may be entitled to recovery from a third party. A third party personal injury or wrongful death case is when a party other than the individual’s employer is responsible for the worker’s injury. Often times, third party cases may be brought against general contractors, subcontractors or manufacturers of equipment.

A third party case allows an injured worker to make a recovery for damages not covered under workers compensation. Strellis & Field has lawyers and investigators fully versed in the complexities of third party construction cases. It is important that evidence is secured immediately following a construction accident to assure that injured workers get full compensation from all responsible parties.

Founding partner, Dennis Field, understands the concerns of injured workers. As a third generation ironworker, Dennis knows how severe injuries sustained on the job site can change the lives of people forever.
