Suffering a workplace injury is frightening and can be debilitating. You’re worried that your injury will keep you from going back to work in the same capacity, and you’re also concerned about the mounting medical bills. Since it happened at work, you are likely entitled to workers’ compensation to pay your medical bills and replace some of your lost wages. However, if you aren’t eligible for workers’ compensation or another party is responsible, you might need to file a personal injury lawsuit. Then you can take the steps needed to recover damages for your injury.

Our workplace injury lawyer represents a broad range of clients and injuries. Some common workplace injuries include:
These injuries can lead to lifelong complications and even death. Consult with our attorney to determine if you are eligible for additional compensation for your injuries.
You also might have a claim against a third party due to your injury. In this instance, you will file a personal injury claim. Unlike a workers’ compensation claim, you have to prove fault to have a successful personal injury case. That means you must provide evidence that demonstrates the other party owed you a duty of care that was breached, causing the accident. The accident then led to damages, such as medical bills and lost wages.
For example, if you have an automobile accident while on the job, you might be able to file a personal injury lawsuit against the at-fault driver. Depending on your situation, you also might have a third-party claim against subcontractors, manufacturers, suppliers, and others. Consult with our workplace injury lawyer today to go over your options.
If you slipped and fell at a friend’s house, you might be hesitant to file a claim. You don’t want your friend to pay you for your injuries, but you still need financial help. Fortunately, the property owner’s homeowner’s insurance policy should pay the claim. Thus, your friend won’t have to write a check for the claim, but you can get the help you need to pay for medical bills, recoup lost wages, and more.
Contact our slip and fall lawyer to find out how this works. Then you can proceed with your claim without worrying about it hurting your friendship.
