Can I Sue For A Nail Gun Accident?

Although many accidents seem unavoidable, injured workers are often the victims of negligence. When coworkers and sub-contractors fail to use proper care in executing their duties, and others get hurt, injured parties may be entitled to compensation.

When faulty nail gun designs are put on the market, construction professionals and consumers are placed directly in harm’s way. And while recalls can pull these dangerous products off the shelves, many defective nail guns have already made their way into our hands. Victims of nailer malfunction accidents may also be entitled to compensation, this time from the manufacturers themselves.

Personal injury lawsuits allow victims to pursue valuable settlements and court verdicts, money that can cover medical expenses, lost wages, pain, suffering, and ongoing disability. Find out if you may have a case in our FAQ here.
