Workers compensation law only applies to workers who are hurt on the job. Workers compensation benefits are available to an injured worker without regard to who, if anyone, was at fault in causing the injury. So long as the employer makes workers compensation benefits available to the injured employee, the employer can not be sued for personal injury or wrongful death damages; workers compensation is the exclusive remedy available to an injured worker.

While the workplace accidents we have listed here are some of the most common, there are many other causes of work related injuries that we represent.
