Granite City Work Injury Attorneys
Although workers' compensation is intended to cover the costs associated with most workplace injuries — things like medical bills, lost wages and disability payments — it does not necessarily cover every workplace situation.
For instance, when workers are injured by employees of other businesses, they do not qualify for workers' compensation from those businesses. Instead, they have the option to sue for injury damages as part of what is known as a "third-party" negligence claim.
Brunton Law Offices, in Collinsville, Illinois, represents workers in third-party injury claims in both southern Illinois and eastern Missouri. Our lawyers have more than 40 combined years of experience in seeking workplace injury compensation, including for injuries that do not normally qualify for workers' comp.
