Who Can Be Held Liable in a Mining Accident?

Liability in a mining accident often extends beyond your employer. While workers' compensation covers most job-related injuries, you may also have a third-party liability claim if someone else’s negligence contributed to your accident.

Responsible parties may include:

• Equipment manufacturers – if defective machinery or tools caused your injury
• Maintenance companies – for failing to properly service or inspect mining equipment
• Property owners – if they failed to keep the site reasonably safe
• Vehicle operators – if another party caused a crash or rollover

Identifying who is at fault is key to securing full compensation — including damages not covered by workers' comp, like pain and suffering or future income loss. Behzadi Law will investigate your case thoroughly to hold all negligent parties accountable.
