But when negligence causes serious injury or wrongful death, the victim or victim's family should be properly compensated.

Products liability is a technical area of the law and can include such areas as design defect, failure to warn, or manufacturing defect. Many firms do not have the resources to handle such cases, but the attorneys of O’Hara Taylor Sloan Cassidy Beck PLLC are able to analyze the case and advise you on the best course of action. Typically, there are insurance companies involved and filing a lawsuit might not actually be necessary to achieve a fair settlement.

Due to the nature of these types of cases, it can sometimes be unclear as to who is the responsible party that caused the defect and injury. Was it the manufacturer? Did someone alter the product? Did some unknown third party design a component that failed? Contact our attorneys today so that we can address all appropriate issues, including who is ultimately responsible, and guide you to a speedy resolution.

Many injured workers do not know about the full range of their rights after an injury on the job. People usually have some idea of their right to benefits under workers' compensation law, but they often do not realize that they may also have a right to personal injury damages from a negligent defendant unrelated to the employer.

Some examples of the kinds of cases that often support a right to compensation under both systems are:

• Accidents at loading docks, warehouses, or freight yards

• Accidents suffered by health care workers at hospitals, nursing homes, or private in-home assignments

• Construction or installation worker accidents

• Employee injuries in stores, restaurants, or hotels

• Highway accidents suffered by truck drivers or other commercial vehicle operators

• Injuries on delivery or maintenance routes

• Manufacturing or assembly accidents, especially those caused by defective machinery or equipment

As a general rule, a non-employer can be sued for negligence over and above an injured employee's right to workers' compensation benefits. The advice of a knowledgeable attorney can help you understand the full extent of your rights after a job-related injury. Our firm’s substantial experience in the practice of law relating directly to the workplace injury experience can be put to use for you.

With workplace accident litigation experience going back to the 1960s, the attorneys at O’Hara Taylor Sloan Cassidy Beck PLLC know what to look for to determine your rights in a lawsuit for damages or a claim for benefits.

Whenever possible, we will pursue both claims on your behalf.

In most situations, when you have been injured on the job, we will be able to assist you in expeditiously obtaining all benefits to which you are legally entitled. Contact our office by phone or e-mail to schedule your initial consultation and learn more about how our attorneys can help.
