Cranes and Aerial lifts dot the landscape at construction sites all across the U.S. It might come as little surprise, then, that the Electronic Library of Construction Occupational Safety & Health reports that an average of 26 construction workers die each year on aerial lifts. The deaths, which are responsible for as many as 3 percent of all construction-related deaths, occur when workers fall from the lift, are electrocuted while on it, or are in a lift or crane that collapses or tips over. Whether you or a loved one was injured on a bucket truck, cherry picker, elevated platform or other crane and aerial lift, you may be entitled to damages.

Negligence & Injuries

Negligence is, sadly, often behind crane and aerial lift injury accidents. In April 2013 Christopher Hill of Alabama won a lawsuit for $1.7 million after suffering a crane-related injury. One million dollars was awarded against three companies in compensation for damage: All Crane Rental of Alabama, TEK Aerial Lifts and SMP Welding. The company that owned the lift on which Hill was hurt was given a $700,000 additional payment order for punitive damages. While the plaintiffs accused a subcontractor known as SMK, Hill’s lawyer pointed the finger more at All Crane, who allegedly did not conduct proper maintenance inspections.

Damages due to cranes and aerial lifts are not just suffered by construction workers. Sometimes innocent bystanders can be hurt too, which is the case with Kathy Gaberson and Larry Ammon; they filed a lawsuit against general contractor Lease Crutcher Lewis and engineering firm Magnusson Klemencic Associates after their son, Matt Ammon, died when a crane fell onto his apartment on November 16, 2006. Gaberson and Ammon claimed that poor installation and faulty design caused their son’s death. The settlement was settled in April 2009, before the trial reached court.
