Construction Accident Lawyer in Claremore & Rogers County

Construction zones are some of the most dangerous places to work—and even pass through. Whether you're an injured employee, subcontractor, or a passerby hurt near a job site, you may be entitled to compensation. At our Claremore firm, we help clients across Rogers County and Northeast Oklahoma pursue injury claims after serious construction accidents.

Who We Help

We represent a wide range of clients in construction-related injury claims:

  • Workers hurt on residential or commercial job sites
  • Subcontractors injured due to another contractor’s negligence
  • Pedestrians or drivers injured near unsafe or poorly marked construction areas
  • Visitors injured due to open trenches, debris, or falling objects

From local housing developments to road work along Route 66 or Hwy 20, we’ve seen how quickly accidents happen—and how hard insurers try to shift blame.

Workers' Comp vs. Personal Injury

If you're an employee injured on the job, you may be entitled to workers’ compensation—but that doesn’t always cover everything. In some cases, you can file a third-party injury claim against a negligent contractor, equipment manufacturer, or property owner for additional damages.


We’ll help you:



  • Determine all liable parties
  • Navigate both the workers’ comp and personal injury systems
  • Maximize your total compensation

What Compensation Can You Recover?

Depending on the details of your case, you may be able to recover:



  • Medical bills and ongoing treatment
  • Lost income or future earning capacity
  • Pain and suffering
  • Vocational rehabilitation or retraining
  • Wrongful death benefits (if a loved one was lost)

We work with medical experts and economists to make sure your full costs—now and in the future—are accounted for.

Local Experience Matters

Construction sites are everywhere in Rogers County—from Claremore developments and downtown renovations to highway expansions and Cherokee Nation-funded infrastructure projects. We’re local attorneys who know the courts, contractors, and procedures here—and we fight for injured workers and families in our own backyard.



We also handle job site accidents on tribal lands or projects involving tribal contractors.

FAQ – Construction Accidents in Oklahoma

  • Can I sue if I was hurt on a construction site?

    If you were injured due to someone else's negligence (not your employer), you may be able to file a third-party personal injury claim in addition to workers’ compensation.

  • What if I was working under the table or as a subcontractor?

    You may still be able to file a claim. We can help assess your employment status and legal options.

  • What should I do after a job site injury?

    Report the injury, get medical treatment, document everything (photos, witnesses), and call a lawyer as soon as possible. Don’t sign anything from an insurance company before speaking with us.

  • Do you handle tribal construction accidents?

    Yes. We are licensed in Cherokee Nation courts and can represent clients injured on tribal construction sites or projects.

  • Is there a time limit to file a claim?

    Yes—most construction accident claims must be filed within 2 years of the injury, but workers’ comp claims have shorter deadlines. Act quickly to protect your rights.
