Most of the injuries were the result of the negligence or misconduct of another person or entity. As a result, we have been able to obtain compensation for injured workers, securing major settlements and verdicts on their behalves.

Seeking Maximum Compensation From All Available Sources

Workplace accidents can result in life-changing injuries and even fatalities. Workers' comp may not always provide enough benefits to truly compensate injured workers and their families. We help clients seek the maximum available compensation for accidents such as the following:

• Construction accidents: There are many potential hazards on construction sites, including scaffolds, falling debris, crane accidents and electrical accidents. That is why everyone involved in a construction project has to be careful for the safety of others.
• Scaffolding and ladder falls: If you do any work, from window-washing to construction work, at an elevated height, the property owner and general contractor at your work site are responsible for providing adequate scaffolding, ladders and safety devices.
• Auto accidents: If you have been injured in a car or truck accident that occurred while you were on the job, it is important to hire an attorney who understands how your personal injury compensation will tie in to your workers' compensation benefits.
• Building accidents: If you work in an office building owned by someone other than your employer, you may be entitled to personal injury compensation for injuries suffered in a slip and fall accident, elevator accident or other accident on the premises.
• Machine accidents: Manufacturers, vendors and other parties can be held accountable when workers are injured by dangerous or defective machines in the workplace.
