Construction Defects Warrant Several Legal Considerations

When you are injured by a fall caused by structural defects in a building, walkway, or structure, your lawyer may determine where the defect stems from. Some possible sources of the problem include:

  • The construction of the structure
  • The maintenance of the structure
  • The repairs to the structure
  • The design of the structure

The origins of the defect are just one of the many factors that your lawyer will consider when determining who might be liable for your injuries. Some factors may come into play when analyzing a construction defect, such as:

  • The type of structure that contains the defect
  • Who is responsible for maintenance and repairs
  • Specific laws, rules and building codes applicable
  • The specific cause of the defect
  • Who is responsible for the defect (e.g., a contractor)

Insurance and legal issues surrounding defective construction can be complex. Having a lawyer manage your case will allow you to avoid any confusion that might come from handling your case alone.

Defects that Could Cause Injury

Buildings and other structures come in all shapes, sizes, ages, and designs. Many different defects could cause an injury to you or your loved one. According to ScienceDirect, many accidents in construction sites or buildings with structural defects result from human error, whether in construction or design.

Some defects that could result in an injury include:

  • Uneven flooring
  • Uneven stairs

  • Allowing heat sources to be exposed
  • Faulty or improper electrical wiring
  • Weak windows
  • Faulty roofing
  • Improperly placed support walls
