Re: Construction Fall
You should probably contact an attorney. Whether homeowners insurance would cover your or not is something that I can't discern from the facts you've given. It is also possible that you are a "statutory employee" under workers compensation, and may have rights there. I would urge you to contact an attorney and schedule an appointment to get assistance with this issue.
