Personal Injury Attorney for Massachusetts Industrial Accidents
People who get hurt at work usually have some awareness of their rights under Massachusetts workers' compensation law, but they don't always know about their potential claims for personal injury damages from sources other than the employer.
In general, negligence by a non-employer third party can often support a personal injury lawsuit separate from a workers' comp claim, but it's not always easy to identify the facts that indicate the third party's negligence. The advice of an experienced lawyer can help you understand the full range of your rights after an accident at work.
Call 888-251-7535 or 508-251-7535 for Advice About Injuries on the Job
Contact a Worcester work-related injury attorney at the law firm of Peter Ventura, Attorney at Law, to learn about your legal options under the personal injury system, the workers' compensation system or both. We can evaluate your case and give you an accurate idea of your alternatives under a variety of work accident scenarios:
- Traffic accidents suffered by professional truck drivers
- Injuries in factories or assembly plants
- Warehouse or freight yard accidents
- Injuries in office or retail buildings
- Accidents on installation, maintenance or delivery routes
- Construction site accidents
We advise workers in Central Mass and Metro West about their options for collecting the compensation necessary to make up for lost income or to cover medical expenses. If the facts of your case show that you have the right to pursue personal injury damages in addition to workers' compensation benefits, an experienced lawyer can show you how to get the most out of your claims.
Because personal injury damages cover a wider range of damages than workers' comp, it makes sense to work with a lawyer who can advise you about both procedures.
