> Roadwork can create dangerous places to drive, and car accidents are a common result. Find out if you have a case for compensation and who owes it to you by consulting with a Boise road construction accident lawyer.

Have you been injured in a car accident that happened in a road construction site ? If so, you might be entitled to seek financial compensation if the accident was caused by someone else’s negligence. Idaho state law makes it possible for you to sue any negligent parties that may have caused your accident.

Most drivers understand the need to slow down and be cautious in road construction zones, but exceptions always exist. A Boise road construction accident lawyer from Craig Swapp & Associates can help you seek compensation for your injuries if you’ve been hurt in one of these wrecks.

How Roadwork Car Crashes Occur

Roadwork car accidents occur for a long list of reasons, many of which are directly related to drivers speeding or not paying attention to road signs. Other factors that may lead to an accident can include the following:

Poor weather conditions, broken street lights, and poorly marked signage can also cause car accidents and injuries at road construction sites. Because these types of accidents can be complicated to sort out, you will need an experienced attorney to help you determine who or what was at fault.

Who’s at Fault in a Road Construction Car Wreck?

If your roadwork auto accident was caused by another driver and he or she was negligent in some way, it would be the driver and his or her insurance company who would be responsible for compensating you. However, other people who could be held accountable for any potential negligence include the road crew, equipment manufacturers, and government agencies.

This may present you with additional opportunities to recoup expenses like medical bills, time away from work, and any other losses related to the accident. Even road construction car accidents caused by sudden water main explosions, gas line explosions, or other non-workplace negligence may qualify.

What Can You Seek Compensation For?

Idaho state law allows you to seek compensation for a number of losses, both financial and noneconomic. The most common loss for which people seek compensation is medical bills, with lost wages and income and a reduction in earning potential caused by an injury running a close second and third. Pain and suffering, both of which are extremely common after a roadwork accident, are also very common.

Working closely with an experienced personal injury lawyer will ensure that all of your accident-related damages and expenses are factored into your final settlement amount..

Client Reviews

“I was concerned with all the paperwork”

Before calling your firm I had 2 big worries. One was I didn’t want to do more paper work, and that fear was resolved when I had to do very little, but Craig Swapp and Assoc. did most of it, and when I did have to come in to sign papers they worked around the times I could do it. Worry 2 was I didn’t want people to think I was “sue happy” and that I was just out to get money. I just wanted my bills to be paid for that were from the accident, and that was resolved I think by Mr. Wes Mortenson and Theresa because they listened to what I had to say.

"I would hire them in a second"

My biggest fear was not having all the expenses caused by the accident paid for in full. I was assured they would be taken care of but I admit I was skeptical. When we wrapped everything up (which happened quicker than I was originally told) I had extra money in my pocket. I honestly thought there was a catch but my attorney explained everything to me in detail. If I am ever in that position again I’ll be giving Craig Swapp a call.

"I was afraid of the fees"

I was afraid of the fees I would have to pay a lawyer. I waited over a year before hiring your law firm. I finally reached out to your online help where they were able to help me understand the process and what would happen. In all honesty I absolutely loved working with the individuals that were involved in my case. They were genuine & heartfelt about my case. It felt as though they really cared and were concerned about me, not just as a client but as a person.

"I was afraid that my issue was too small"

I was afraid that my issue was too small to be handled, and that it would just be rejected. Or that I’d end up having to pay for my medical expenses and any of your teams expenses. I would definitely answer yes, it was resolved! I wasn’t ever made out to feel like my little issue didn’t matter, and my expenses were paid for- just what I wanted/needed.

"I am very pleased with the results"

My biggest fear was that it would be pointless to pursue legal action in my case. I felt like maybe I didn’t have much of a case. After speaking with Paul, I realize it was not of my own fault and that others can be held responsible for the pain and suffering I went through.
