Work Injury Attorneys in Austin, Texas
Families of workers killed while on the job, and employees who suffer an injury while on the job, have rights. Some employers carry workers' compensation insurance coverage, which may provide minimal benefits to an injured employee or to the family of an employee killed while working.
However, some employers do not carry workers' compensation insurance coverage, and in those situations, an injured employee or the family of a deceased worker may claim directly against the employer for all economic damages as well as other damages.
Furthermore, some workplace injuries and deaths occur because of negligence by someone other than the employer, and an injured employee or deceased worker's family may pursue claims for damages against those negligent third parties.
At Rosenthal & Watson, P.C., we help injured workers and their families rebuild their lives by seeking justice. Call 800-563-5199 today.
Third-Party Work Injury Claims
A third-party claim arises when someone other than the injured worker's employer causes an injury or death through negligence. This could include employees who are injured in motor vehicle collisions while on-the-job, or employees who are injured or killed because of defective tools or equipment manufactured by a third party. Third-party cases such as these may be pursued by the injured worker or the family of a deceased worker even when the worker's employer is covered by workers' compensation insurance coverage, and therefore, may result in greater compensation for the workplace victim and family.
Rosenthal & Watson, P.C. is experienced in evaluating potential third-party liability in the workplace environment, as well as aggressively pursuing recovery for our clients from those third parties.
