Construction Accidents/Third Party Liability Claims
Newark Construction Accidents Lawyer
An employee who is injured on the job as a result of his or her employer's negligence is eligible for workers' compensation benefits. However, if a third party was responsible for the injuries — such as a product manufacturer or a contractor from another company — the injured worker may be eligible for additional benefits.
At the South Orange law firm of David A. Bolson, we help injured construction workers seek benefits through a third-party liability claim. If a third party caused or contributed to your injuries, contact our law office to learn about your legal options in a free consultation.
Maplewood Third-Party Liability Attorney
Pursuing a third-party liability claim allows an individual to seek additional compensation after suffering a work injury. Workers' compensation benefits are somewhat limiting, allowing compensation for a portion of lost wages and medical care. However, through a third-party liability claim, individuals can seek compensation for additional medical benefits, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages. Examples of a potential third-party liability claim in a construction accident include:
- A negligent product manufacturer whose dangerous product caused an injury
- A negligent coworker or contractor
- A car accident that occurred in a company vehicle
- An unsafe worksite
For more than 30 years, attorney David A. Bolson has been representing clients in New Jersey who have been injured in personal injury and on-the-job accidents.
