If you or a family member has been injured in a construction accident in Pennsylvania or New Jersey, you get one opportunity to build your case against those who may be responsible. You need tough, knowledgeable, and experienced construction lawyers to handle your case. Our team of skilled construction accident lawyers have a track record of fighting and winning cases for injured workers and their families. We can put that experience to work for you. For years, both John Mattiacci and Bill Coppol have handled serious construction accident cases. Our firm is very familiar with construction safety standards, including the safety standards instituted by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). These safety standards must be followed on job sites to help minimize the risk of injury. When safety standards are violated, the lives of workers are put in danger. As experienced Pennsylvania construction accident lawyers, we have investigated and examined construction accidents to evaluate whether any OSHA violations took place and who was responsible for any violation. Our attorneys have gone toe to toe with big insurance companies and some of the largest construction companies in the tri-state area to get justice for our clients. We have been involved in construction cases involving anything major construction works to smaller residential projects. Our attorneys have litigated injury cases involving the Pennsylvania Convention Center Expansion project, the University of Pennsylvania health campus expansion, the former Sunoco refinery, and many other job sites across the area. We are proud of the results our firm has obtained for clients in construction accident cases in both Pennsylvania and New Jersey. John and Bill have variously served as lead and co-counsel in several of these cases, including:

• $9 million recovery for a worker injured in construction site accident
• $3 million recovery for a worksite fall case
• $2 million recovery for a worksite vehicle accident
• $1.65 million recovery for a union sprinkler fitter injured in a worksite fall

My husband was seriously injured in an accident. It left him a paraplegic without bowel or bladder function. For nine months he lived in a rehab hospital. We had absolutely no experience with attorneys – never needed one before the accident. The best decision we made was when we called John Mattiacci. I can’t even remember the first two weeks during his surgery and hospital stay. Needless to say, we were overwhelmed. Between going back and forth daily to the rehab hospital I was too stressed to think about legal matters. John eased our minds. He led our fight, taking the stress away from me. He was so helpful in explaining how the entire process works. He handled everything while I concentrated on helping my husband heal. John gave his all to our case. His heart is as big as his mind. We could feel his genuine compassion for our family. As an example, in one of our court conferences, after John presented, there wasn’t a dry eye in the room (including the other side of the table). If we ever have a legal matter in the future, it will be John Mattiacci that we call. We could not recommend him more highly.
