I lost my fingertip at work is there any legal remedy for me?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Andrew Tyler Velonis (Unclaimed Profile)
Personal Injury lawyer at Andrew T. Velonis, P.C.
Worker's comp covers medical expenses and time out of work. You cannot sue your employer for negligence and damages for "pain and suffering" is not available. If you have a permanent injury, you may be able to get a "schedule award" which is based on a formula depending on the extent of your disability and your rate of pay, offset by payments that you have already received. Whether or not your fingertip qualifies as a permanent partial disability depends on how much of it was lost and whether it hinders your work. There are other considerations as well, such as whether you are a public or private employee. If you are a member of a union, contact your union rep to see what you are entitled to. That may include ADD insurance and/or prepaid legal fees for your comp lawyer.

Is there a case if neither the victim nor the witness showed up in the court?

Irving M. Blank
Answered by attorney Irving M. Blank (Unclaimed Profile)
Personal Injury lawyer at Blank Marcus, LLC
It sounds like you were in traffic court and that has no effect on an injured party making a claim for damages resulting from an auto accident. You will have to wait two years from the date of the accident before you know if a claim is being made. After two years, there can be claim.

What is a reasonable amount for pain and suffering from a dog bite injury?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Andrew Tyler Velonis (Unclaimed Profile)
Personal Injury lawyer at Andrew T. Velonis, P.C.
You've been bitten by a dog, now don't get bitten by an insurance company as well! Assessment of damages in a personal injury case requires detailed analysis of liability, the injuries, and the effect of those injuries upon the individual. This analysis includes application of legal principles, evidentiary factors, medical documentation, out of pocket expenses, calculation of future losses and experience in your jurisdiction as to likely range of prospective jury awards. A "cookie-cutter" approach, a standard answer or a formula would be a disservice to someone such as yourself, who needs the help of an experienced personal injury lawyer. To answer the question properly, one would need extensive examination of all the evidence, particularly the medical records. Many people use this site to ask what their case is worth. Our answers are always: Get in touch with a personal injury lawyer in your area. That is the best way to get the best result in your case. Keep in mind, it is the insurance company's claim adjuster's job to settle this out as cheaply as possible and they have trained, experienced professionals to do it, people who know liability issues and negotiation techniques. To them, you are just another file, but you probably have never had something like this happen to you before and so are not equipped to take this on in the manner that it should be handled.
