Pursuing Compensation Through a Third-Party Workplace Injury Lawsuit

The workers’ compensation system is a no-fault system. It is designed to not only provide workers with the financial resources they need after a work-related injury but also to protect employers from being sued by injured employees. In most cases, if you have recovered workers’ compensation benefits from your employer, you cannot file a lawsuit against them for the same injury. There are instances when injured workers can recover more compensation through a lawsuit.

• If your employer does not have a workers’ compensation insurance policy you can file a lawsuit against them to recover compensation for your damages.
• If you were injured as a result of the use of a defective product, you can file a lawsuit against the manufacturer of the defective product
• If your injury was the result of exposure to toxic chemicals or other illegal substances
• If your injury was the result of an accident caused by a negligent third-party such as a contractor
• If your employer’s actions were intentional and this resulted in your injury
