#234 Georgia Workers' Compensation Lawyer - Georgia’s Exclusive Remedy Under A Minute

So we received a question the other day to explain a little bit more about what the exclusive remedy is under Georgia workers compensation. Well what that means is if you have been injured, you cannot really file a lawsuit against your employer or co worker if they're the ones who cause the injury. What you have to do the exclusive remedy under the law is to go through workers comp and to follow workers compensation claim. Now, how do people sometimes have personal injury claim and workers compensation claim? Well that's where a third party. So that would be no one connected to the employer, no co workers or anything like that. If someone's hurt by machine and there is another company that comes in and maintains that machine, well, arguably there could be a third party action. If the employer takes care of the machine, entirely by themselves it's probably not there.
