Logging Accidents
West Virginia Logging Accident Injury ClaimsMuch like coal mining the West Virginia logging industry presents many different risks of injury and death for those who work in the woods, or who perform tree removal operations in connection with road construction, utility transmission, or mine development. To learn about your legal options in the event of a severe or fatal West Virginia logging accident, contact an experienced personal injury attorney at the Akers Law Offices in Charleston. We represent clients injured in logging operations in various ways, including the following:
Logging accident injuries can range from the loss of one or more fingers to the amputation of an arm or leg, traumatic brain injury resulting from falling objects or falls from heights, severe back or spinal injuries resulting from truck or skid loader accidents. Our ability to work with medical and rehabilitation experts from a wide range of specialties can result in a thoroughly documented and persuasive presentation of your overall physical and economic losses. Many claims for damages in logging accidents will involve litigation against multiple defendants. Vehicle owners and operators, employers in cases supporting deliberate intent liability, equipment manufacturers or repair services and property owners might all be held liable in a given case, depending on your specific circumstances. Our experience with the investigation and proof of complex injury claims can give our clients a distinct advantage both in the negotiation and in the trial of logging accident injury claims. We also represent the families of persons killed in logging and timber operations in lawsuits filed under the West Virginia wrongful death statute.
