If you have been injured at work due to the negligence of someone other than your employer, you should file a personal injury lawsuit. The reason is that personal injury damages cover a wider range of losses than workers’ compensation benefits. In a personal injury case, you have the right to recover for pain and suffering and all of your past and future wage benefits without being limited by workers’ compensation. At the law firm of Gary C. Johnson, PSC, our lawyers have extensive experience with the review and evaluation of injuries on the job, and we can give you an honest opinion as to your ability to recover personal injury damages in a workplace accident. For additional information and a free consultation about your right to compensation for an injury on the job, contact us in Pikeville, Hazard or Pikeville.
