Financial Relief After A Workplace Accident

When employers or contractors cut corners, the results can be catastrophic. Often, the workers involved are tragically injured. Many permanently lose their ability to work and support their families. Injuries caused by falling objects, faulty machinery, falling debris, a collapsed trench, or negligent safety precautions can lead to a lifetime of suffering.

Possible workplace injuries can include:

Workers’ Compensation Claims

To be eligible for workers’ compensation, you must have sustained your injuries during the course and scope of employment or your injuries must be related to your employment. Most disputed claims involve the second issue. Is the injury work-related? If you are severely injured by machinery at work, the company will most likely agree that your injury is work related. In many cases, your injury or illness may be an aggravation of a pre-existing condition. In these cases, you may need a medical witness to give an opinion regarding your bodily injury and the services of a skilled personal injury attorney to prove your case.

Third Party Claims

While there may be benefits available to the injured worker through workers’ compensation insurance, a workers’ compensation claim does not always lead to full compensation for the injuries you sustained. You may also have a personal injury claim against the individual or company responsible for your workplace accident.

Third party workplace injury claims are complicated. For example, workers’ compensation laws may prevent you from bringing a claim directly against your employer. Furthermore, mistakes in your third party claim can affect your workers’ compensation claim and vice versa. Our attorneys have years of experience helping injured workers bring both workers’ compensation claims and personal injury claims against the negligent party. We understand how to handle these claims to obtain maximum recovery.
