Can I sue my employer for an injury at work?

Jeffrey Wittenbrink
Answered by attorney Jeffrey Wittenbrink
Personal Injury lawyer at Wittenbrink Law Firm
Injuries at work are covered by the Louisiana Worker's Compensation statutes. You may not sue your employer for an injury at work unless he intentionally (purposely) injured you. Worker's Compensation will cover your medical expenses for the injury, and if you are disabled from working will pay you compensation until you are well enough to work. Sometimes you may be injured due to the fault of a third party at work. For example, a machine you are using may be defective, and you may be injured due to the defect in the machine. You should consult with an attorney about worker's compensation and about the possibility that your injuries were caused by the fault of a third party.

What does uninsured coverage $25,000 a person, $50,000 each accident means and how long does my insurance pay?

Paul L. Whitfield
Answered by attorney Paul L. Whitfield (Unclaimed Profile)
Personal Injury lawyer at Paul Whitfield and Associates P.A.
25 is limit for one person. 50 for several. You have 3 years to bring a lawsuit. The insurance co wants everything heavily documented and they are never in a hurry (like the government) you will get some settlement based on the documents and their notion about value. Your opinion or your ideas will be disregarded (I get the sense that you have a notion they will walk up and write you a check.. they don't work that way) They do advertise on TV that they work that way but as with all liability insurance claims they lie. They want to create the impression that they look after people in order to SELL insurance. In fact getting them to pay fair value for a claim is extremely difficult.

What can I do about a slip and fall case on my store parking lot?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Andrew Tyler Velonis (Unclaimed Profile)
Personal Injury lawyer at Andrew T. Velonis, P.C.
In order to make a claim against a property owner (including stores, parking lots, apartments, etc) the injured party has to show that the owner knew or should have known of the hazard, had an opportunity to correct it, and failed to take action. So, he would have to prove that the you knew of the ice, had time to salt or sand it, and did not do so. The fact that he was not a customer has nothing to do with liability, though if you have "med-pay" coverage, that might not apply. More importantly, you must report this to your insurance company immediately and co-operate in full with the investigation, etc. If a claim is made, they will handle it. If you are sued, they will pay for a lawyer to defend you. This will apply even if the claim is bogus. Do not for a minute think that you are protecting yourself or your insurance company by handling this yourself. If your insurance company disclaims on the grounds that you did not timely report the incident, you will be stuck with significant legal bills that could end up costing more than paying the claim, bogus or not.
