Construction accidents can change lives in an instant. If you have suffered an injury on a construction site, you’re likely dealing with immense physical, emotional and financial stress. Waple & Houk, PLLC is here to help you make sense of the situation. Our Gastonia construction accident lawyer is prepared to protect your rights and pursue the compensation you deserve to rebuild your life.
Common Issues On Construction Sites
Construction sites are known for their dangerous environments, where heavy machinery, power tools and elevated platforms are part of daily operations. Accidents can occur due to a range of factors, including faulty equipment, inadequate safety training, falling objects or unsafe working conditions.
The impact of these accidents can include serious injuries such as broken bones, spinal cord damage, traumatic brain injuries, amputations and even fatalities. Beyond the physical harm, victims often face complex legal and financial challenges.
The Outcome of Construction Accidents
When construction accidents happen, the consequences often extend far beyond the injuries themselves. Victims may experience prolonged recovery periods, loss of income due to missed work and mounting medical bills.
Many individuals also endure significant emotional challenges, grappling with pain, frustration and uncertainty about the future. The stress of dealing with insurance companies or uncooperative employers only adds to the burden. Without proper legal assistance, securing fair compensation can feel like an uphill battle.

What Real Clients Have To Say
Dustin M.
I have never had a more pleasant experience with an attorney and their paralegals in my life!!! Hands down the best law firm in North Carolina, probably the whole country! Would definitely recommend them to anyone needing counsel. They are all so easy to get along with and friendly.... My employer lied, as many do in this situation but Lou and his team were quick to step in and get me the compensation I deserved! Thank you, from my whole family. Waple and Houk are #1
Darrin R.
Mr. Lou is by far the most compassionate attorney I’ve encountered and once again he helped me with a worker’s compensation claim and his paralegal was also great. Mr.Lou is very professional and he allows you room for your concerns and opinions, he’s just a great human being that doesn’t need to advertise his partnership law firm on tv just ask any of his past clients and they would totally agree with me, God forbid that I’m in a serious car accident but if I am he’s just a phone call away so if you...
Travis B.
Mr. Waple did a fantastic job on my case, even if I wasn't a lot of help he still came through and for that I thank you Mr. Waple.
Tara D.
I was at a point of despair & thought that my then employer would do the right thing. Lou’s honesty, and integrity; along with his guidance gave me the dose of reality that I needed to see the true colors of legality in corporate America. Without his savvy I would have been blindsided! Cherie, always responded to all of my responses, and nervous reactions and made sure Lou was aware of what was happening! Great firm, I would highly recommend to anyone who wants respect, honesty and guidance as a client!
Aunyette S.
Mr.Waple has handled both of my cases very well. I definitely recommend this team of professional lawyers and secretaries. Thank you!
Tashaun H.
My experience working with Lou was an absolute joy. From our very first conversation, he assured me that he would work relentlessly to help me secure adequate compensation for my case and he did just that. His paralegal, Cheri, was helpful with timely responses to any and all questions I had and she helped reduce the stress of a very tedious process. I highly recommend this firm for any future litigation and would love to work with them again if the opportunity arises.

Lindsey Houk helped me gain custody of my son from a very toxic and unhealthy environment with his biological mom. Thanks to Lindsey, I was able to provide him with the stability he needed. Thank you for your hard work and unwavering dedication to our case. You were always available, promptly filed emergency documents, and provided unwavering support from the moment we first discussed my case in your office. Some might say you were just doing your job, but whatever the case, my family appreciates you so much. My son is the true definition of...
Tammy A.
Mr. Lou Waple & his associates rendered great & professional services to me from day one handling my case. They are very friendly & stayed on top of everything. I will use them again if needed in the future & I highly recommend them to others.
Jessie W.
Lou and the team was just what I needed. They never left me in doubt. It was like he held my hand the whole way through. He worked with the workers comp agency and I didn't have to deal with them. Thanks team.
David P.
Lou and Cheri were absolutely amazing! Cheri went above and beyond any expectations I had to make sure I was taken care of. Lou was there for all of my questions and made sure the mediation went the way it should by engaging the moderator and making sure the insurance company was held responsible for the compensation to me for my injuries. Thank you both and your entire team for helping me through this horrendous tragedy. I am forever grateful to you!
