Workers’ Comp After a Construction Injury

Answer:

I recently had a call from a worker, who worked on a construction site, who was injured at the construction site. He asked me whether or not workers’ comp, as other lawyers had told him, was the only option in a construction site. The answer is no. It is not necessarily the only option. It is a complicated legal question, however. That is why you need to identify and hire an experienced personal injury trial lawyer who can walk you through the process and identify whether or not there are other options, other than workers’ comp, for a personal injury lawsuit.

If there are other options available, you would be entitled to compensation under the law for lost wages, for reimbursement of medical expenses, pain and suffering in the past and in the future, as well as emotional trauma as a result of the carelessness, recklessness or negligence of somebody at that job site.

We at the Chavez Law Firm have the knowledge base and experience to ask the right questions and to guide you through the process of getting just compensation for all the injuries that you have suffered. Please give us a call.
