Jacksonville Construction Accident Attorney
Hurt on the Job? We Can Help!
Construction workers are accustomed to operating in a hazardous environment, and they generally employ safety equipment and follow procedures to avoid accidents. As a construction worker, you have a right to demand that your co-workers perform at the highest levels of caution and do everything in their power to prevent injuries which may not only be painful and expensive to treat, but could cost you your livelihood. When you have suffered an injury in a construction accident, you can turn to Jason K.S. Porter, P.A. for help.
At The Law Offices of Jason K.S. Porter, P.A., our Jacksonville construction accident lawyers have dedicated their careers to fighting for the rights of injured victims. When the site owner, contractor, sub-contractor, or anyone else in the chain of command fails to maintain a safe work environment, you deserve the chance to seek compensation to help cover the costs of your injury, recovery, pain and suffering, and more.
Reach out to us today if you were injured on a work site.
What Compensation Am I Entitled To?
Depending on the circumstances of your accident, you may be entitled to compensation through a personal injury lawsuit, workers' compensation or a combination of both.
Our state legislature recognizes the hazards of construction work, and consequently makes it mandatory for construction companies to carry workers' compensation insurance, as well as requiring subcontractors to supply proof of workers' compensation coverage. Your settlement from your employer may be limited to workers' compensation benefits, but there is a possibility that you can sue a third party whose negligence caused or contributed to your workplace injuries.

Accidents caused by falling tools and lumber, carelessly operated heavy equipment, falls from rooftops, scaffolding or ladders, electrocution, and welding can lead to injuries requiring extensive medical care and rehabilitative treatment. Whether you have suffered a spinal cord injury, brain injury or other harm, a Jacksonville construction accident attorney from our firm can work to help you maximize the amount you receive in a settlement. If the injury has forced you out of work or made it impossible for you to continue in the construction industry, you cannot afford to take risks with your claim.

Over the past month or so I had made a call to the Law offices of Jason Porter because I needed to resolve an issue that occurred over 7 years ago. Once I explained the situation the secretary sent me directly to Jonathan Thacher. All I can say is that Thacher did an amazing job handling my case and I am extremely happy right now. I no longer have to worry about that problem ever again thanks to Thacher. The work was effective and everything went through perfectly. Thank you so much man you really took years of stress off my shoulder and I can finally have clarity in my mind.- Joshua S.

First and foremost, everyone from staff to the attorneys are all great!! I first started with the firm in 2015 and due to my own circumstances, I was unable to complete the needed court requirements in order to finalize my case. The amount I paid to retain an attorney was placed in a trust and they assured me it would be there until I completed my requirements. 4 years later they kept their word and finalized my case once I completed my needed court requirement. Everything was professional and in a timely fashion on their behalf. They also found a second issue that needed to be resolved and also completed that for me. Although I hope to never need their services again, if I do, I will definitely be giving them a call. Thank you, everyone!- Erik R.

I'd been accused of something I did not do. My situation was a total nightmare. I consulted with Attorney Porter and he assured me that my tough situation could be handled. Attorney Gary Shumar tirelessly worked my case, while showing patience and empathy when I felt frustrated. Needless to say, my charges were dropped. I highly recommend this firm.- Nikki

Mr. Porter is an excellent attorney. He helped me and my teenage son through a very difficult situation. He was right there immediately ensuring we had representation. He even called to follow up to ensure we were ok. He is very passionate about helping his clients. He also does not try to charge you if he knows you don’t have a case. He’s very honest and a great person. Highly recommend him if you need legal advice. Kelley- K.H.
