Work Injury Lawyers
Caring Representation for Workplace Accidents
Every job within any industry has potential hazards and risks. However, every employer is expected to follow the law and adhere to rules to keep their employees safe. When they fail to do so, it can lead to serious workplace accidents and injuries.
At Tennyson Law Firm, our work injury lawyers offer dedicated representation and support for workers who have suffered on-the-job injuries.
Call us today at (781) 740-7800 to determine if you are eligible for compensation.
Evaluating Your Workplace Injury Claim
The first step when we take on your case is to review all the details of your accident, including who was at fault. We work tirelessly to gather as much evidence as possible and put it all together to support your claim. If you have already reported the incident to your employer or filed paperwork and they have denied or delayed your claim, we will need to include that as part of your lawsuit.
We may be able to recover damages for:
- Hospital bills
- Medical expenses
- Rehabilitation
- Lost wages
- Pain and suffering
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Loss of consortium for a spouse
- Loss of parental society and companionship for a minor child
Workers' Compensation vs. Third-Party Claims
There are two main types of compensation you may be entitled to after being hurt in the workplace, depending on the circumstances or your accident or injury. Workers' compensation is the main form of compensation that workers can receive if they are hurt on the job. Under workers' compensation laws, you are forbidden from suing your employer for an injury suffered at work. However, if there was a third-party involved – such as a negligent manufacturer or another person who is not your employer – you may be able to file a third-party claim.
During your initial consultation, our workplace injury attorneys can review your situation and determine the right path forward. With our team on your side, you will be positioned for success from the very beginning.
