Imagine you’re on an official errand, and suddenly you find yourself embroiled in an automobile accident. Or perhaps, while on the company premises, a collision with machinery such as a forklift occurs. These incidents can lead to grave injuries ranging from concussions to spinal damages and broken bones.

It’s quite instinctive to consider filing a workers’ compensation claim immediately post the accident. Often, employees might already possess a pre-filled form from their employer for such instances. However, it’s pivotal to halt and consult an attorney before you embark on the compensation claim process. Contact PLBH at (800) 435-7542 to get started.

The Need for Legal Guidance Post-Accident

While the workers’ compensation route might seem the straightforward choice, it might not always be the most advantageous for you. Such claims typically cover a part of your medical bills and some of your lost wages during the recuperation period. In more severe cases where the injury results in permanent disability, workers’ compensation might offer a one-time settlement.

Yet, what if there’s more to your situation? What if there’s a possibility to frame your situation as a personal injury claim? This opens the door to seeking remuneration for not just tangible losses, but also for pain, emotional distress, and other non-economic damages that workers’ compensation doesn’t encompass. Such an option becomes viable when the mishap is attributable to a third-party entity, like another motorist or a faulty vehicle component.
