Whether you’re in Stuart, West Palm Beach, or the surrounding areas, our experienced personal injury lawyers are here to assist you every step of the way.

Who Can File a Work Injury Claim?

A work injury claim can be filed by anyone who sustains an injury while performing job-related duties. This includes:

1. Employees:
Full-time, part-time, and temporary workers who are injured during the course of their employment are eligible to file a claim. This ensures that you receive the necessary medical care and compensation for lost wages.

2. Independent Contractors:
In some cases, independent contractors may also be eligible for compensation if the injury was due to employer negligence. Determining eligibility can be complex, and our skilled attorneys can help evaluate your specific situation.

3. Third Parties:
If a third party’s actions or negligence caused the injury, the injured worker might file a claim against them. This includes scenarios where another company or individual’s actions lead to your injury while you are performing your job duties.

Knowing your eligibility is crucial for obtaining the compensation you deserve. Contact us 24/7 at (772) 842-8822 (Stuart) or (561) 687-1717 (West Palm Beach) to schedule an appointment. Visit our office at 1330 SE Federal Hwy, Stuart, FL 34994.

Where Slip and Fall Injuries Commonly Occur

Slip and fall injuries can occur in a variety of locations, often resulting in serious injuries. Some common places where these incidents happen include:

1. Workplaces:
Factories, construction sites, and office buildings are common settings for slip and fall accidents. Wet floors, uneven surfaces, and inadequate lighting often contribute to these incidents.

2. Public Spaces:
Shopping malls, restaurants, and supermarkets frequently witness slip and fall injuries due to spills, debris, and poor maintenance.

3. Private Properties:
Homeowners and landlords are responsible for maintaining safe conditions on their property. Failure to do so can lead to slip and fall accidents.

For those injured in slip and fall incidents, it’s essential to seek legal advice to ensure proper compensation. Our personal injury lawyers are well-versed in handling these cases and can guide you through the process.
