What Do You Do After A Car Accident At Work?
A car accident can be anything from a minor inconvenience to a devastating, life-altering event. If a car accident happens while you are at work, there are many complicated factors to consider. You will need to coordinate your medical care, address damage to your vehicle or a company vehicle, and bring a claim against the other driver.
These workers’ compensation cases can be complex. It is important to work with a Kentucky workers’ compensation lawyer who understands the complex issues involved in personal injury and workers’ compensation cases. For years, people in Shelbyville, Frankfort and across Kentucky have trusted me to handle challenging work-injury cases.

The Unique Legal Challenges Involved In These Work Accident Cases
If you are injured in a car accident while on the job, you can bring a workers’ compensation claim. This is not surprising since your injury occurred while at work. However, since the person responsible for the accident is not your employer, you can also bring a personal injury claim against the negligent driver.
This can have a major impact, as you can recover the medical benefits and wage benefits in a workers’ compensation case from Kentucky workers’ compensation insurance, as well as damages for pain and suffering, and other wage loss benefits in a personal injury case.
