If you are injured at work due to the negligence of a co-worker, your rights are probably limited by workers compensation laws. But what if you are injured due to the negligence of a person who doesn't work with you? For example, a postal worker bitten by a customer's vicious dog, or an automobile accident with a civilian.
If your injury on the job was caused by a third party, you may be entitled to other benefits from that third party's insurer.
Injured workers are never compensated under workers compensation law for pain and suffering, but they may receive payment for pain and suffering from negligent third parties.
It is important that your attorney pursue all of your rights.
