Injured On The Job?
Most injured workers are not aware that they might also ha
ve the
right to file a lawsuit for negligence and personal injury damages for
an injury on the job. Kentucky law makes it very difficult to sue your employer or a co-worker, but
i
f the negligence of anyone else played a role in your injury, you should discuss your legal options with a
personal injury lawyer.
If you have been injured at work due to the negligence of someone
other than your employer, you may need to file a personal injury lawsuit. Personal injury damages cover a wider range of
losses than workers' compensation benefits alone.
For example, in a personal injury case, you have the right to recover for pain
and suffering as well as your past and future wage benefits without
being limited by workers' compensation.
