Third-Party Claims
If you have been injured on the job, you may be entitled to more than just workers’ compensation benefits. If your injury was the result of negligence on the part of a third party, you may pursue a personal injury claim as well. Third parties include equipment manufacturers, contractors, property owners and anyone else who is not your employer or co-worker. Personal injury law allows you to pursue compensation for pain and suffering, diminished quality of life, and other elements not covered by workers’ compensation law.
Truck accidents can be caused by many factors, including negligent or careless actions of a truck driver and inadequate rest stop policies by the employer trucking company. Poor weather conditions only exacerbate a bad situation, leading to serious and often deadly truck accidents.
