Industrial Accident Attorney in Allegheny County
Pittsburgh Lawyer for Victims Injured at Work
Heavy industry has long been part of the cultural and economic landscape of the greater Pittsburgh region. With its proximity to waterways and major railroads, the area was once among the nation's leaders in steel production, coal mining, and other manufacturing focuses. While the Steel City's economy has shifted toward health care, finance, and technology in recent decades, industrial and manufacturing jobs still comprise a significant percentage of the region's workforce.
At Colianni & Leonard LLC, we recognize that factories and other industrial worksites play an important role in the financial health of greater Pittsburgh. We also realize that those who work in industrial settings often face a wide variety of dangers. When industrial workers are injured, they may face significant challenges in obtaining compensation and putting their lives back together. Our experienced team can provide the zealous representation you need following an industrial accident.
Representing Injured Industrial Workers in Ross Township and Franklin Park
Each year, private employers across the country report almost 3 million non-fatal workplace injuries. Manufacturing and construction occupations are widely considered to be two of the most dangerous sectors, as the rates of injury for such workers are among the highest of any industry. Manufacturing and heavy industry workers may be exposed to a variety of dangers, including large-scale machinery with countless moving parts, extreme heat and cold, and highly toxic chemicals and materials. While there is no avoiding some workplace hazards, the reality is that many industrial accidents are preventable and are caused by a specific action or negligence.
