Questions About Work Related Injury Claims
in Denver and throughout Colorado and Wyoming
What sort of work-related injuries are most common?
Common workplace injuries depend on the industry. In certain industries including factory work and jobs that require a lot of typing, repetitive motion injuries are most common. In other industries, common injuries might include trauma, electrocution, burns, and injuries due to toxin exposure. In some industries like roofing and construction, workers are often involved in serious accidents.
What damages can I recover under workers' compensation laws?
Workers' compensation provides a modest settlement amount for workers injured in the course of employment. This amount is designed to provide for loss of income, medical expenses, and in some cases, job retraining costs.
Can I sue my employer for additional damages?
In some rare situations you can sue your employer for additional damages if the employer acted in a reckless way or the injury was caused by an intentional act. If a third party other than your employer caused your injury, you can sue them for full damages, including physical, economic, and emotional damages.
