Can You File a Personal Injury Claim Too?

In many mining accidents, someone outside your employer may be partially or fully responsible. That opens the door to a third-party liability claim, which can help you recover compensation that goes beyond what workers’ compensation offers.

You may have a personal injury case if your accident involved:

  • A defective piece of mining equipment or machinery
  • A company that improperly maintained or serviced critical tools or vehicles
  • A property owner or contractor who created unsafe work conditions

Workers’ compensation does not cover pain and suffering, future loss of income, or other non-economic damages. But a successful third-party claim can. That’s why we investigate every case thoroughly — to determine where additional accountability may lie.

Waiting too long can permanently bar you from seeking compensation for your medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Our team is available 24/7 and speaks both English and Spanish. Don't wait, contact our experienced team for your free initial consultation today.
