There will be too many questions to count when it comes to wood truss system failures and personal injuries. However, there are certainly some questions that are more important than others. Key questions to ask when discussing your situation with a personal injury attorney (or questions that an attorney may ask you) include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Who was the contractor responsible for overseeing the temporary wood truss bracing?
- Who was the engineer responsible for overseeing the permanent wood truss bracing?
- When did the wood truss system fail? Was it during the installation process or after?
- Did weather play a role in a wood truss system failure?
- Were the contractor and engineer familiar with industry standards and guidelines?
- Were the contractor and engineer qualified to install the wood truss system and the required temporary and permanent bracing?
- Were there any missing or misaligned metal plates connecting the wood trusses?
- Were any metal plates or joint connectors pulled out of the wood trusses?
- Were any of the wood trusses damaged before installation?
- Were any of the wood trusses altered without the approval of a registered design professional?
- Was anyone else injured from the wood truss system failure?

As you can see from the questions above, evaluating wood truss system failures and injuries associated with those failures can be very complicated. As such, speaking with an attorney about your situation is the best option to find out if someone else is at fault for a wood truss system failure that led to injuries. It can be difficult to investigate matters on your own, especially because there are specific guidelines and standards governing the wood truss system industry. Additionally, there is a lot of misinformation on the internet, so speaking with a licensed and qualified attorney will help to ensure you are receiving accurate information regarding your legal rights.
