Connolly Injury Law at 8501 W Higgins Rd #420, Chicago, IL 60631, provides dedicated representation for road construction accident victims in Chicago. Road construction workers face higher injury risks than other construction workers, working around large earth-moving equipment while cars whiz past at high speeds. Making matters worse, many crews work at night when driver visibility is limited. Attorney Charles N. Therman understands the importance of hard work and commitment, giving his best effort and attitude to every case, focused on securing fair compensation for serious injuries. Like most workers in Chicagoland, road construction workers deal with both trauma injuries and occupational diseases. According to OSHA, the Fatal Four trauma injuries – falls, struck by objects, caught between accidents, and electrocutions – cause most fatal construction accidents. For occupational diseases, hearing loss is significant due to loud traffic and construction equipment. Workers’ compensation typically provides two-thirds of weekly wages until doctors clear workers to return, plus medical expenses coverage for up to five years.
