Frequently Asked Questions About Construction Accident Claims

  • 1. Can I file a lawsuit if I’m already receiving workers’ compensation?

    Yes—depending on the circumstances. While workers’ compensation typically covers medical bills and partial lost wages, it often falls short of what injured workers truly need. If your injury was caused by a third party—such as a subcontractor, manufacturer, or property owner—you may be eligible to file a separate personal injury lawsuit.


    At Comras & Comras, we routinely investigate these cases to determine all potential sources of liability. We’ll make sure you’re not limited to the bare minimum if there’s more on the table.

  • 2. What if I’m a subcontractor or not a full-time employee?

    Your employment status doesn’t always determine your right to compensation. Many construction workers in Florida are subcontractors, and injury liability can still fall on general contractors, property owners, or negligent third parties. If you were injured on a job site due to unsafe conditions, we want to hear your story.


    David Comras and his team know how to navigate the complex relationships on job sites. We’ll identify who’s responsible and pursue the compensation you’re entitled to under Florida law—regardless of your job title.

  • 3. How do I prove negligence on a construction site?

    Construction injury cases often involve multiple layers of responsibility. Proving negligence may require site inspections, safety reports, witness statements, and expert analysis of OSHA regulations or industry standards. Our firm immediately begins securing evidence and identifying breaches of duty.


    We’ve built strong relationships with construction safety experts and forensic engineers who support our investigations. When you hire Comras & Comras, you get more than legal strategy—you get a full team working to prove your case.

  • 4. How long do I have to file a construction accident claim in Florida?

    If you’re filing a personal injury claim related to a construction accident, Florida law typically gives you two years from the date of the incident. Workers’ comp claims must be filed even sooner. Delays can impact your case, especially if evidence disappears or witnesses move on to other projects.


    We move quickly and thoroughly from the moment you contact us. Our firm doesn’t wait around for paperwork to catch up—we lead with preparation and urgency.
