Some workers’ compensation cases are complicated by someone other than your employer being potentially responsible for your injuries. Some examples of situations where you might want to consult with a Houston work injury attorney about filing a third-party claim include:
- When an injury occurs while making a delivery to another company or individual as part of your work-related duties.
- When there are multiple contractors working on the same job site and one company causes injury to the employee of another company.
- If traveling for work and you are injured by a negligent or drunk driver, you may pursue a personal injury claim in addition to your workers’ compensation benefits.
