Injured at Work Or Due To Someone's Negligence?

bullet imagebullet imageInjuries at work or injuries due to someone else's negligence require the assistance of an experienced attorney. Time limitations can be crucial for filing a claim against an employer or the at-fault party. The law is also governed by who is liable for the injuries suffered and to what degree. For example, if someone is driving drunk or speeding and you are injured due to them breaking the law, the liability of who is at fault is less of a question in the case. Only an experienced firm like Beninato & Matrafajlo can help to review the case and determine the possible settlement that could be obtained.

Another example of personal injury is medical malpractice. When a patient arrives at the hospital seeking emergency care, they expect to be treated. If the doctors or nurses refuse to give the patient emergency care because they do not have insurance that is a violation of federal law. If the patient suffers further injury from not receiving the medical treatment they need, they could sue the hospital and doctor for medical malpractice. Another area of medical malpractice is not receiving the proper care from a medical professional that any trained professional would know how to treat.


Workers compensation can become a convoluted area for filing a claim under. Employers try to keep their workers compensation rates as low as possible by fighting claims against their insurance. They could offer to pay the employees medical bills or let them continue to receive their salary in order to eliminate a claim against their insurance. Whether an employee has worked for a day or 30 years for a company, if they become injured, they should consult with Beninato & Matrafajlo about their rights and a review of their injury and the case. It is always better to receive the legal guidance that you need.

Injuries of any kind can dramatically affect the current and future earning capacity of an individual. In some cases, injuries due to someone else's negligence can result in death. Trying to recover from an injury while not having an income due to the injuries can become a very large burden on anyone financially. This is where an experienced attorney can help to guide you and relieve you of the stress and burden of dealing with the insurance company.
