Construction sites are inherently hazardous places to work. Heavy machinery, elevated work areas, electrical systems, and constant vehicle traffic all create the potential for serious injury.
When contractors, subcontractors, or property owners cut corners on safety, the result can be catastrophic for the workers and bystanders who pay the price.
Construction accident claims are also often more complex than other personal injury cases, since more than one party—a general contractor, subcontractor, property owner, or equipment manufacturer—can share responsibility for what happened on site.
At Brian D. Guralnick Injury Lawyers, our experienced construction accident lawyers in Boynton Beach, FL, represent injured workers and bystanders throughout Palm Beach County.
We understand that after a serious accident, you need more than just legal representation—you need people who genuinely care about what you’re going through.

Even if your accident isn’t listed here, you may still have a valid claim. An experienced construction accident attorney can evaluate the full circumstances and identify every party that may share responsibility.

I feel they really cared about my well being, and about my outcome. Brian was a pleasure to work with. You can tell he cares about his company, and it shows in the way he does business and his staff. Thank you again! I will definitely be sending people your way.
Brian Guralnick and his staff are the best there is out there! Each staff member was always professional, personable and a pleasure to work with. They all went above and beyond my expectations, and did an excellent job for me. I would highly recommend them to anyone who is in need of this kind of service.
I chose Brian Guralnick for my personal injury case because of my experience with Brian on a previous business relationship that I had with him many years ago. At that time I could tell that this man was detail oriented and passionate and caring. This was my very first experience with a personal injury lawsuit and Brian and his team very professionally advised me and compassionately guided me at every turn. My case was settled much faster than I had expected and for a settlement amount that was higher than I expected. When Brian says that he will “Demand More”, he is absolutely telling the truth. Brian and his team absolutely know what they are doing.
