Liability for injuries in the construction industry can vary based on the cause of your accident. For example, the manufacturer of defective machinery can be liable for your losses, while a property owner may be liable if the site is unsafe. There are many nuances to this type of case, and investigating every piece of evidence and the potentially responsible party is difficult for the average accident victim, so let us handle this on your behalf.
We can help you demonstrate how your accident has negatively affected your life. We may employ the help of expert medical witnesses and economists to calculate your losses accurately.
A construction accident lawyer at Loncar Lyon Jenkins can handle communications with insurers while you focus on preventing further injury from occurring. You can refer any inquiries from the insurer to our office instead of making statements that could weaken your claim.
Insurance companies minimize costs by pressuring victims to accept a lump sum settlement. While these offers provide short-term relief, most initial settlement offers are too low to cover their medical and financial needs over the long run.
A construction accident lawyer can help negotiate a fair and comprehensive settlement that covers all of your past, present, and future expenses.

At Loncar Lyon Jenkins, we can represent your case for construction accidents involving:
While some cases may resolve quickly and without the need for trial, this is not always the case. Some insurers and employers may fight tooth and nail to deny you fair compensation.

You and your family deserve to grieve in peace. Let us seek compensation to help you cope with your loved one’s absence.
Construction accident injury cases we represent include:
And more.
Not all injuries are immediately apparent. For example, certain diseases related to exposure to toxic substances can cause a person to be diagnosed years after their first exposure. The employer or owner may be liable if they do not adequately protect an employee from this danger.
It is essential to seek medical attention even if you believe an injury to be minor. By receiving medical care, you may prevent an injury from worsening and protect your right to compensation.
The last thing you want is an insurer claiming you worsened your injuries, which can result in an undervalued or denied claim. We do not want you to suffer any further losses as a result of your accident, so see a doctor as soon as possible.
We understand that you do not want to risk any further financial loss after suffering an accident in Odessa. Our construction accident lawyers take cases on a contingency fee basis. As such, you do not pay us anything unless we get compensation for you through a settlement or court ruling.
This allows us to begin working on your case immediately and helps us abide by any relevant deadlines that may apply. We advocate for construction accident victims and want to see how we can help you recover your losses.
While recovering, the clock on your construction accident lawsuit doesn’t stop ticking. According to Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code § 16.003, you only have two years to file your lawsuit or risk your right to compensation. This timeframe will go by quickly, so we urge you to reach out immediately after your accident. The sooner you get us on your case, the sooner we can get started by filing your suit and gathering evidence.
