Workers injured on the job are entitled to workers’ compensation regardless of who was at fault. The law requires employers to purchase a worker’s compensation insurance to cover all their employees. In the event of an injury, the worker is entitled to special benefits, including reimbursement for medical expenses, lost wages and other expenses.

A worker may also seek special compensation if an accident caused them to lose a part of their body, suffer disfigurement or lose the ability to see, hear, or work.

If an employee succumbed to injuries sustained in the accident or to an illness caused by the accident, their surviving spouse, minor children or appointed next-of-kin can seek death benefits.

If a third party’s negligent actions were the cause of your injury, you may seek third-party liability damages against the negligent party or their company.

If you were injured in a workplace accident, contact our office and schedule a free initial consultation with an experienced workers’ compensation lawyer.
