If you were injured at work, their dedicated legal team will fight to get your medical bills paid, lost wages replaced, and fair compensation for your suffering.
Common Work Accidents in Philadelphia
Philadelphia has a diverse workforce engaged in all types of industries and occupations. This exposes employees to a wide range of hazards that can cause serious injuries, such as:
Construction site accidents - Falls, struck by objects, electrocutions, and more
Automobile accidents - Crash injuries for drivers, delivery workers, etc.
Slip and fall accidents - Spills, uneven floors, unmarked hazards
Exposure to chemicals/toxins - In factories, plants, and other facilities
Repetitive motion injuries - Assembly line, data entry, warehouse work
Machinery accidents - Improper machine guarding, malfunctioning equipment
Explosions and burns - At industrial sites and restaurants
Patient handling injuries - Lifting injuries for nurses and healthcare workers
A work injury lawyer can determine liability for the at-fault parties who contributed to the accident due to negligence, lack of training, failure to repair equipment, etc. Their attorneys will build the strongest case possible to recover full damages.
Your Rights After a Philadelphia Work Injury
Pennsylvania workers injured on the job have legal rights including:
Medical Benefits - All reasonable and necessary medical treatment covered
Wage Loss Benefits - Compensation for portion of lost income after work injury
Permanent Impairment Benefits - For lifelong conditions reducing earning capacity
