Know Your Workers Compensation Rights in Colorado for Construction Worker Accidents

Workers Compensation Attorneys Colorado

Do you work in construction?

Are you curious to know whether the types of accidents that happen at your job are on the list of common construction accidents?

According to the Department of Labor, these were the types of accidents that were responsible for more than half of workplace accidents:

  • Falls
  • Electrocutions
  • Struck by object
  • Caught-in/between objects

Are you at risk for any of these types of accidents on the job? It’s important to know your workers compensation rights in the state of Colorado to ensure you’re protected. There are a variety of benefits and settlements for injured or ill workers that include but are not limited to:

Medical benefits: The insurer will cover the costs for most medical treatment you need while you’re recovering from an on-the-job injury or illness.

Lost wages: The insurer may make up a portion of your lost wages.

Additionally, insurers may provide disability benefits for a workers’ compensation settlement if you have some type of permanent disability. Attorneys at our firm will also fight for your right to claim your settlement over a period of time, or in a lump-sum payment.

If you do experience a workplace accident and are looking for help with the workers compensation process, our workers compensation attorneys in Colorado at Kaufman & Kaufman are ready to work for you! A member of the team is available for you at (970) 945-2396. Or, get more information about your rights and benefits here.

"Kaufman and Kaufman was extremely professional in my case. They set appointments as often as I requested which was often weekly or more. They handled all the problems that came up and ended up settling my case for more than I expected. I was very happy with the result."

"I’ve known the folks at Kaufman and Kaufman for more than 30 years. Correct - I said 30 years. The Kaufman’s have *always* done the right thing, especially when it’s not easy. Trust, in 2022, is hard. Trusting the Kaufman’s, in 2022, is simple."

- Jeff W. (2022)

"Kaufman and Kaufman represented me in a workman’s comp case and I couldn’t be happier with their service. They were very professional and gave me the personal service I was relying on. I hope I never get in that kind of situation again but if I do the Kaufman’s would be the firm I’d call. I highly recommend them."

- Erik (2022)

"Couldn't have asked for a more compassionate and thorough legal representation! Matt was so patient in taking the time to explain everything. The entire staff was incredible. I felt bolstered and validated throughout. I would recommend K&K to anyone going through a dark time with a debilitating injury.. they truly do care about their clients."

- Jessica C. (2022)

"The Kaufman team is very professional and knowledgeable about the work comp laws . They guided me in every step of the process, and if I ever have to do this again , they would be my first call. Without them i wouldn't have been able to pay my bills, and provide for my family. Thanks again to Kaufman and Kaufman for allowing my family to survive."
