Jacobs & Jacobs, P.C. Represents Victims of Workplace Injuries
After a workplace injury, a detailed investigation into the circumstances of the accident is a first step toward helping the injury victim obtain the compensation that he or she needs. Examples of situations leading to workplace injuries are as follows:
- Unsecure and unsafe scaffolding
- Machines that lack guards to protect hands and fingers
- Forklifts that run over workers in the vicinity
- Falling debris
- Falls from high places
- Plywood ramps and planks improperly used as walkways
- Car accidents on the job
- Unsafe machinery
It is equally important to document and review the injury itself. This will involve close communication with doctors, review of medical records, observations and interviews. Workplace injuries can be catastrophic, such as the ones below:
- Amputation
- Burn injuries
- Brain injury
- Spinal cord injury
- Broken bones
- Loss of sight
- Loss of hearing
- Fatality on the job
