• Workplace Accidents — Based on data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, in 2021 there were more than 2 million recorded injuries or illnesses that took place on the job, and 5,190 employment-related deaths. Workplace injuries include chemical exposure, repetitive motion and even losing a body part. It is important to contact a knowledgeable workers’ compensation lawyer if you’ve been injured at work.
• Product Liability — Products that malfunction can cause devastating injuries. There may be manufacturing defects, poorly issued warning labels or instructions, and even design defects that victims deserve compensation for. In the U.S. in 2021, almost 12 million people went to the emergency room for injuries resulting from defective products. Defective products can include motor vehicle componenets, children’s toys and other everyday items.
• Medical Malpractice — Another common cause behind personal injury claims, medical malpractice is often related to surgical mistakes, failure to diagnose, prescribing the wrong medication and birth injuries.
