Why Our Law Firm Stands Out in Handling Third Party Claims for Workers Compensation and Personal Injury

When an injury occurs at work, the path to fair compensation can be complex. Many injured workers face challenges not only with their employer’s workers compensation system but also when a third party is involved. Our law firm specializes in navigating these complicated cases, ensuring clients receive the full benefits they deserve. This post explains why our firm is uniquely qualified to handle third party claims related to workers compensation and personal injury, and how our approach benefits injured workers.

Understanding Third Party Claims in Workers Compensation and Personal Injury

When a worker is injured on the job, workers compensation typically covers medical expenses and lost wages. However, if a third party—someone other than the employer or a coworker—caused or contributed to the injury, the injured worker may have the right to file a third party claim. Examples include:

• A defective machine manufacturer causing injury

• A negligent contractor working on the job site

• A driver causing a car accident during work hours

  
  

Third party claims allow injured workers to seek additional compensation beyond workers compensation benefits. These claims often involve personal injury law and can cover damages such as pain and suffering, which workers compensation does not.

Why Handling Third Party Claims Requires Specialized Expertise

Third party claims are more complex than standard workers compensation cases. They involve multiple parties, legal systems, and types of damages. Our firm’s expertise in both workers compensation and personal injury law gives us a distinct advantage:

• Dual knowledge: We understand workers compensation rules and personal injury laws, allowing us to coordinate claims effectively.

• Experience with insurance companies: We negotiate with multiple insurers to maximize compensation.

• Litigation skills: When negotiations fail, we are prepared to take cases to court.

• Investigation resources: We gather evidence, interview witnesses, and consult experts to build strong cases.

  
  

This combination ensures clients do not miss out on compensation they deserve due to legal complexities.

How Our Firm Supports Clients Through Every Step

We recognize that injured workers often feel overwhelmed by the legal process. Our firm provides clear guidance and support from the initial consultation through case resolution:

• Free case evaluation: We assess the merits of your claim with no upfront cost.

• Clear communication: We explain your rights and options in plain language.

• Personalized strategy: Every case is unique, so we tailor our approach to your situation.

• No fees unless you win: Our contingency fee arrangement means you pay nothing unless we recover compensation.

  
  

Our goal is to reduce stress and help clients focus on recovery while we handle the legal details.

Real Examples of Our Success in Third Party Claims

Our track record shows how our approach benefits injured workers:

• A home healthcare provider injured at a patient's residence received full workers compensation benefits plus a six-figure settlement from the landowner.

• A school bus driver hurt in a collision caused by a negligent driver won compensation for lost wages, medical bills, and pain and suffering.

• We secured a settlement in the mid-six figures for a worker struck by a negligent driver, and we also assisted them in navigating the workers' compensation claims process to receive ongoing medical treatment and compensation for lost wages due to their injuries.

  
  

These cases demonstrate our ability to secure comprehensive compensation by pursuing all responsible parties.

What Injured Workers Should Know About Third Party Claims

If you are injured at work, consider these points:

• Filing a workers compensation claim does not prevent you from pursuing a third party claim.

• Third party claims can provide compensation for damages workers compensation does not cover.

• Time limits apply to filing claims, so prompt legal advice is crucial.

• Insurance companies may try to minimize payouts; legal representation helps level the playing field.

  
  

Understanding these facts empowers injured workers to make informed decisions.
