Third Party Claim From Work Injury

Posted on August 15, 2018

Stoltze & Stoltze PLCIf you are injured at work, your employer is immune from lawsuits under workers’ compensation; however, you may bring an action against anyone other than your employer in a third party claim.

Examples include:

  • If you slip or fall at a customer’s premise while performing your duties.
  • If you are injured as a result of a defective product, a third party action may be brought against a manufacture or seller of the product.
  • If your injury results from the negligence of a subcontractor or general contractor at a work site, a third party action may be brought against the negligent contractor.
  • If you are involved in a motor vehicle accident during the course of your employment, a third party action may be taken against the at fault driver.

If you or a family member suffers a work related injury, it is worthwhile to consider a third party action. Many injured employees are able to recover damages that exceed their workers’ compensation benefits to aid in their overall recovery following a workplace accident.
