Understanding Workplace Injury Cases

Although some jobs are more dangerous than others, anyone can get hurt at work, from an uncommon accident to developing an occupational illness or medical condition. If you get hurt at work, your employer should cover the cost of your medical care. In South Carolina, nearly all employers are required to provide workers’ compensation insurance, an employer-sponsored benefit that covers the injured employee’s medical bills and a stipend if they have to miss work. Most employees are eligible for this benefit. However, there are some situations in which the injured employee may be eligible to file a lawsuit for negligence if the workplace injury was caused by a third party. Our Charleston, SC workplace injury lawyer can help you understand your legal options. Call Woron and Dhillon, LLC today to learn more.

We all have the right to a safe workplace, yet many employers take shortcuts on employee safety, choosing profits over protecting their workers from harm. If you were hurt at work, you can usually expect to receive South Carolina workers’ compensation benefits after a job-related injury (nearly every employer in the state is required to offer this no-cost benefit to employees). Workers’ compensation pays for all necessary medical treatment, along with partial wage replacement if you miss work while recovering.

In some situations, injured workers may also be eligible to file a third-party lawsuit after an injury. This is in addition to receiving workers’ compensation (or sometimes instead of it). Third-party claims apply in situations in which you are hurt at work due to the negligence of someone other than your employer. For example, if you’re an outside sales representative making client visits and another driver crashes into you, you may collect workers’ compensation because you were working, plus pursue a lawsuit against the at-fault driver (which can cover the property damage to your vehicle and provide compensation for the pain and suffering from your injuries).

Our Charleston workplace injury lawyer helps you fully understand your rights after an injury or workplace accident. We assist with workers’ compensation claims, personal injury lawsuits, and any benefits claim appeals.
