How do Trench Collapse Injury claims happen?

When a trench collapses, it can happen extremely quickly. The weight of the displaced earth or material will create a very heavy load which can cause serious damage to any equipment it lands on. In the worst cases, the trench can collapse while there is someone working within the trench itself. An injury resulting from a collapsed trench can be extremely serious and cause long-term injuries and disability.
