A crane-involved collision occurred in Tangipahoa Parish, leading to a third-party liability claim brought in the 21st Judicial District Court. Kopfler & Hermann resolved the case for $202,000 for our injured client.
Crane and heavy-equipment accidents require a coordinated investigation into multiple potential defendants: the crane operator’s employer, the equipment owner, the equipment manufacturer, any inspector or rigger involved in the lift, and the property owner where the work was performed. Each layer can contribute additional insurance coverage and additional sources of recovery for the injured worker. Our firm developed the case to identify and pursue all responsible parties.
If you or a loved one has been injured by a crane, a forklift, or any other piece of heavy equipment — whether on a construction site, at a port, or on an offshore platform — please call Kopfler & Hermann.
