Workplace injuries are the most common and numerous of all personal injury matters given the fact that nearly all of us spend most of our time working.
If you have been injured at work, there are numerous potentially liable parties, including the employer / corporation; the workplace site owners; the general contractor or subcontractor; or the state or municipality in the case of a government worker.
Although most workplace damage claims are pursued against the employer under the workers' compensation statute before the Workers' Compensation Commission, in some cases claims are brought against third party corporations or individuals who share responsibility with the employer for the injury.
We routinely work with regulatory agencies and respected workplace safety experts to determine responsibility for accidents.
