Forklift injury Attorney Frederick, MD
from Blank Kim Injury Law's Podcast · host Aaron Blank
What if the forklift accident was partially my fault? Even if you were partially to blame for the forklift accident, you may still be able to seek compensation. In Maryland, the notion of "comparative negligence" applies, which implies that even if you were partially to blame for the accident, you may still be eligible for damages. However, the amount of compensation you can obtain may be lowered depending on your level of fault. Blank Kim Injury Law understands how difficult these situations may be, and our experienced attorneys are adept in analyzing the facts of an accident. We'll collect evidence, interview witnesses, and consult specialists to ensure that your side of the story is thoroughly understood. If you are found partially at fault, we will seek to reduce the impact on your compensation. We will also investigate any other circumstances that may have contributed to the accident, such as equipment problems or employer negligence, and file claims against those responsible. Can I still sue if workers' comp is available? Yes, you may be eligible to sue even if workers' compensation is available, based on the facts surrounding your forklift injury. Workers' compensation normally covers medical expenses and a percentage of lost pay, but it may not fully compensate you for pain, suffering, or other damages. Additionally, workers' compensation normally prohibits you from suing your employer directly, but there are few exceptions. If the forklift accident was caused by a third party, such as a manufacturer, equipment supplier, or contractor, you may be entitled to sue them for bodily injuries. In the event of defective equipment or harmful working circumstances caused by third parties, you may seek further compensation beyond what workers' compensation provides. Blank Kim Injury Law conducts a thorough investigation of your case to identify all potentially responsible parties and pursue all available compensation options. Our trained attorneys have extensive experience managing claims involving workers' compensation and third-party liability, ensuring that you receive the highest potential recovery for your injuries.Visit us online: Email: [email protected]://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xq8zO47DFfIOur Address: Blank Kim Injury Law122 E Patrick St, Frederick, MD 21701(240) 599-8553https://www.google.com/maps?cid=3754425548729968097https://sites.google.com/view/forkliftinjuryattorneyfmd/Find us around the web: Like us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BlankKimInjuryLawFrederickMDFollow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/BKLawFrederickTiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@blankkiminjuryfrederickSubscribe to our YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLBxXnR_czKDR_SnB9xnntEVUDw0G2ZyZ7Find us on Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/blank-kim-injury-law-frederick-md/forklift-injury-attorneyListen to our Buzzsprout Podcasts: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2307254/17062772
