Philadelphia Crane Accident Lawyers
Cranes are some of the most dangerous pieces of equipment on a construction site. Their huge size makes them difficult to control, and just one wrong move can cause the cargo to drop or the crane to smash through a building, injuring and/or killing many people in the process.
If you have been injured or a loved one killed in a crane accident, it is important you contact an attorney as soon as possible. As a construction worker, you may be entitled to receive monetary damages in addition to workers’ compensation. Call or e-mail the crane accident lawyers at MyPhillyLawyer for a free initial consultation.

The attorneys at MyPhillyLawyer begin immediate investigations of your claim to determine why the accident occurred and who is at fault. We hold nothing back as we seek adequate compensation on your behalf.
Some common causes of construction crane accidents include:
