Solving Real Problems for Construction Workers

Can you sue for a construction accident?
Yes. If a third party (e.g., contractor, manufacturer, property owner) caused your injury, a construction accident lawyer can file a personal injury lawsuit alongside your workers’ comp claim.

What if I already filed and was denied?
Many construction workers compensation claims are denied at first. We fight to reverse unfair denials and pursue full benefits.

Are undocumented workers eligible for Missouri workers' compensation?
Yes. Immigration status does not prevent access to workers compensation in Missouri.

FAQs

What’s the difference between a construction workers compensation attorney and a personal injury lawyer?

The former focuses on benefits through the workers’ compensation system, while the latter handles third-party lawsuits. At Spooner & Perkins Attorneys at Law, we handle both.

Can I get compensation if I slipped and fell on-site?

Yes—slip and fall injuries on construction sites may qualify for workers comp and potentially a lawsuit if unsafe conditions were involved.

How soon should I file my claim?

You must notify your employer within 30 days and file within two years. A construction workers comp lawyer can ensure you meet every deadline.

Can I change doctors after seeing the one my employer picked?

Missouri law may allow it—but it’s complex. Let a work injury attorney review your case to protect your rights.

How much does a lawyer cost?

We charge no fee unless we win compensation for you.
