San Diego Workplace Injury Lawyer

Workplace Accidents and Injuries

Accidents at the workplace can occur frequently, particularly when heavy machinery or equipment are involved. As a result, California has adopted workers’ compensation – insurance coverage that provides money to an injured worker for medical expenses and lost wages. Workers’ comp can eliminate the need for litigation in attempting to receive compensation for an injury, but it does not necessarily cover all lost wages or enough medical coverage for a severe or long-term injury such as brain and spinal damage.

Although workers’ comp has made it easier for employees to receive compensation for workplace accidents, some injuries at the workplace are caused by faulty machinery, intentional misconduct or negligence – all of which may qualify for additional compensation.

• Faulty machinery – if faulty machinery was the cause for your injury, you may be able to sue the manufacturer of the product for damages.
• Intentional misconduct or negligence – if your employer knew of a hazard at the workplace and did nothing to resolve it, or failed to properly ensure the workplace was safe, you may be able to sue your employer for damages.
