How to get Compensation for Injuries Caused by Faulty Home Renovation Work
Home renovations should improve your living space, not put you or your family at risk. Unfortunately, when contractors cut corners or use substandard materials, the results can be dangerous.
Who Can Be Held Liable for Faulty Home Renovation Injuries?
When a home renovation leads to injuries, multiple parties may be responsible. Determining liability depends on the circumstances of the renovation and the nature of the defect.
- Contractors and subcontractors: If a contractor or subcontractor performed negligent work that led to unsafe conditions, they could be held liable for injuries resulting from their mistakes.
- Manufacturers of defective materials: If faulty materials caused the injury, the manufacturer could be responsible for compensation.
- Inspectors and engineers: If a home inspector or structural engineer fails to identify hazardous defects during or after the renovation, they may also share liability.
Holding the right party accountable is crucial for ensuring you receive proper compensation for your injuries.
Types of Compensation Available
Suffering an injury due to negligent home renovation work may entitle you to various forms of compensation. The value of damages you receive not only depends on the unique circumstances of your case and the losses you’ve suffered physically, mentally, and financially but also on having an attorney who fights for your best interests.
- Medical expenses: Compensation can cover hospital visits, surgeries, physical therapy, and ongoing medical care.
- Lost wages: If your injury prevents you from working, you may be able to recover lost income, including future earning capacity.
- Pain and suffering: Serious injuries can result in physical pain and emotional distress, both of which may be compensable.
- Property damage: If faulty renovations caused structural damage to your home, you may be entitled to compensation for repairs or reconstruction costs.
Knowing what compensation is available can help you make informed decisions about your legal options.
