Forklifts are commonly used in certain workplace settings, such as a warehouse, but using any type of heavy machinery is risky and poses its risks to its users. If you or a loved one has been in a forklift accident, contact us for a free consultation to see if you may be entitled to compensation.
What kinds of accidents can occur?
A forklift has a few common accidents, one being crushing another person. Often, the person controlling the forklift has is too high up to see or hear another person below. This can result in them running over another person. Also, forklifts often have defects in their construction, which can lead to many types of accidents. Some get in tip over accidents, which is when the whole forklift tips over due to poor design. Others may get into accidents based on the poor safety design. Forklifts need certain safety features to ensure that those controlling it stay safe. However, this is difficult when it is inherently poorly made.
These accidents can cause very serious injuries. People can suffer from anything from broken bones to even death. If you are able to prove that there was an issue in the forklift’s design that was the cause of your injuries, you may have a negligence case where you can receive compensation for your injuries.
