Crane Accident Attorney

Cranes are the back bone of the U.S. construction industry.  There are over 100,000 construction cranes in the United States.  Sadly, each and every year, serious and fatal injuries involving cranes do occur.  Crane accidents can result from operator error, faulty design or construction, lack of maintenance or inadequate supervision.  Outrigger failure, overloading and contact with power lines are yet other reasons why crane accidents and injuries occur.

The Illinois crane accident injury lawyers have been representing victims of crane and construction accidents for over two decades.  For example, Kroll’s crane injury lawyers recently settled a case as a Lockport railroad worker required the amputation of five toes and part of his foot when an outrigger pad on a crane slipped on to his foot.  Kroll also settled a matter for $2,850,000.00 when a 39 year old construction worker suffered a crushed right foot after a steel beam was dropped from a crane while working at a steel plant.  Kroll also obtained a $1,100,000.00 settlement when an Indiana ironworker fractured his ankle and heel when the scissor lift he had been operating toppled into a snow-covered excavation.
