Proving Liability for a Building Collapse

Building collapse accidents include in more ways than a building literally toppling to the ground. Catastrophic injury can occur when there’s a partial cave-in, a staircase or elevator collapse, a ceiling collapse, a floor collapse, or other structural damage. Determining who is liable depends upon the nature of the building collapse, the triggering cause, and the actions of all parties involved.

Building collapse injury attorney Leandros A. Vrionedes helps injured victims recover compensation from any and all parties who may be liable for a building collapse, including but not limited to:

  • Landlords and property owners. If a building collapses after construction is complete, the landlord or property owner could be to blame. Landlords may be at fault even when the collapse happens on property owned or leased by another party if the landlord knew or should have known of the hazard that led to the collapse and it occurred on a structure for which the landlord has maintenance responsibility.
  • General contractors. If all or part of a building collapses due to shoddy workmanship, including the use of cheap materials, cut corners, or lack of training and oversight, the general contractor might be to blame.
  • Sometimes a building collapse injury occurs even when the general contractor was acting as responsibly as can be reasonably expected. The fault may lie with a subcontractor who botched their part of the job, such as a plumber installing pipes in a faulty manner.
  • Engineers and architects. If the core design or construction of the building was flawed from the start, then the building may be unsafe even if built exactly to specifications. If a building collapse occurs because of an error in the math or design of the building, the original engineers or architects involved may be to blame.
  • Demolition contractors. Building demolition must follow specific rules and regulations, typically taking place over multiple phases. When demolition is handled poorly, collapse can happen early, at unexpected times, and in an uncontrolled manner, resulting in injury to anyone who happens to be nearby, including construction workers and bystanders.

If you were hurt in a building collapse, you likely have a claim for damages. Our building collapse law firm will help determine whether the collapse was caused by plumbing leaks, rust, mold, fire, defective design, improper demolition, construction errors, use of cheap materials, or any other factor. We’ll fight for your right to compensation against the party responsible for the devastation you and your family have suffered.
