Milwaukee Work Injury Lawyer
A workplace injury can directly affect your ability to earn an income and support your family. Fortunately, a Milwaukee workplace injury lawyer can help you explore your options for recovering compensation.
As an employee, you have the the right to assume you will be provided a safe working environment. Unfortunately, employers do not always meet this standard of care. In such an event, you may have the right to file a personal injury claim.
Doing so on your own, however, can be difficult. To help secure the outcome you’re after, get in touch with a Milwaukee work injury lawyer from the Law Offices of Gary S. Greenberg.
Filing a Personal Injury Claim for a Milwaukee Work Accident
Most people believe that, after an on-the-job accident in Milwaukee, they have to go through their employer’s workers compensation insurance policy to collect compensation. However, this is not always the case. In some instances, you may be able to file a personal injury claim directly against your employer or another party.
For example, if your employer does not carry adequate workers compensation insurance or isn’t required to carry a policy at all, filing a personal injury lawsuit may be the only way to recover the compensation you deserve.
In other instances, your employer may carry an adequate amount of workers compensation coverage, but filing a personal injury lawsuit may still be better for you. This may include situations in which an outside party was involved or you believe your employer acted maliciously to harm you.
If you are able to file an injury claim, a Milwaukee on-the-job injury lawyer can help you pursue full compensation for your damages—an area in which workers comp often falls short.
Damages You Can Recover in a Milwaukee Work Injury Lawsuit
Often, on-the-job accidents leave victims with severe injuries. This is often the case in dangerous industries like manufacturing, construction, corrections, and healthcare. Your Milwaukee work injury attorney will be responsible for making sure you are awarded all the benefits you deserve and need to streamline your recovery.
Some of the benefits you may be eligible to claim in your personal injury lawsuit include the following:
- Medical care coverage and any associated expenses, including medications, hospital stays, ambulance fees, and travel costs
- Loss of earning capacity
- Compensation for any wages lost while you were in recovery
- Compensation for any permanent disabilities or disfigurement
- Wrongful death benefits
- Loss of consortium
- Pain and suffering
