CAR AND TRUCK ACCIDENTS NEED LAWYERS WHO LASER FOCUS ON THEM

Do You Need a Lawyer for Workplace Injuries or Assault? | Schwartz Law Firm

Posted by Christopher “Chris” Schwartz | Jun 21, 2024 | 0 Comments

Schwartz Law Firm gets many questions about hostile work environments and intimidating supervisors all the time. Normally, those sorts of cases are not covered under workers' compensation.

Under workplace accidents, you must have a specific identifiable accident that hurt your body. Stress and unfair treatment is potentially a discriminatory case and not a workplace injury. If you have any questions about workplace injury, Schwartz Law Firm can help.

Normally, if you were physically assaulted on the job or if someone lays a hand on you, that can be considered a battery. And if there are physical injuries, those potentially are covered under workers' compensation.

Find out if you need a lawyer if you are physically injured on the job from an assault or from an accident. Workers' comp is a fault-free system, so you don't have to be at fault to get workers' compensation benefits.

Thank you.
