Rebuild Your Future After An Injury

Attorney Benjamin M. Salyers

Helping You Recover Third-Party Compensation For Your Kentucky Workplace Injury

If you are hurt during the course of doing your job and cannot work, Kentucky workers’ compensation insurance will cover the costs of your lost wages, medical care and any retraining. My name is Ben Salyers, and as a Kentucky workers’ comp attorney, I can help you pursue those claims. In some cases, you may be able to recover additional damages.

At my firm, Salyers Law, PLLC, I do not just handle workers’ compensation claims. I have also recovered compensation in all types of personal injury cases. When you need a Kentucky workers’ compensation lawyer and a personal injury attorney, come to either of my offices in Shelbyville or Frankfort. I can answer your questions and devise a case strategy that maximizes your workers’ compensation along with additional damages.

I Understand How Personal Injury And Workers’ Comp Laws Intersect

Known as “third-party claims,” these types of cases involve you suffering a work-related injury where someone outside of your work is responsible. Some common types of third-party claims could be for injuries due to:

  • A car accident or truck accident caused by the negligence of another driver while you were driving in your work vehicle
  • An on-the-job accident due to a poorly designed product, like a power tool
  • Being attacked by a dog while performing your job, like making a delivery
  • Suffering from a slip-and-fall accident while leaving work because of a safety hazard not designed by your employer

For example, in a car accident, the other driver is also liable for your injuries. The law is complex; your employer’s insurance company can reclaim the amount of workers’ compensation it pays to you by also taking action against the negligent driver who hurt you.
