Work Injury

Workers’ compensation provides limited benefits regardless of fault — but it does not include pain and suffering. If your injury was caused by someone other than your employer, like a subcontractor or property owner, you may be able to bring a work injury lawsuit for broader compensation.

Third parties such as contractors, equipment manufacturers, negligent drivers, or property owners can be held accountable if their actions — or inaction — led to your injury.

Common injuries include spinal injuries, traumatic brain injuries, broken bones, amputations, and more. If your injury is serious and someone other than your employer may be at fault, you may have a claim worth pursuing.

It depends on the facts of your case. You may be entitled to compensation for:

• Medical bills (past and future)
• Lost income
• Future lost earning potential
• Pain and suffering
• Disability or disfigurement

A skilled lawyer will work with medical and financial experts to ensure all damages — both present and future — are properly calculated and not undervalued by the insurance company.

• Get medical care immediately
• Report the injury to your employer
• Document the accident scene and gather witness names, if possible
• Contact an attorney before speaking with an insurance adjuster

In Delaware, the statute of limitations for filing a personal injury claim is generally two years from the date of injury. If you wait too long, you may lose your right to bring a claim entirely. Talk to an attorney as soon as possible to protect your rights.
