In most cases, you cannot file a personal injury lawsuit for a slip and fall that happened at work. If your employer is the responsible party, you cannot sue them in a personal injury case except under the most limited of circumstances. The only way that you can file a personal injury lawsuit for a work injury is if a third party caused it (and not a coworker).Otherwise, your sole remedy for a work injury is the workers’ compensation system. This leads to a lower compensation amount because you do not receive full lost wages or payment for pain and suffering. Zanes Law Injury Lawyers can also help you with your workers’ compensation case, especially if someone denies your claim or you need to negotiate a settlement.
