Can You Sue Your Employer or a Third Party for Additional Damages?
Under state workers' compensation rules, workers injured on the job have the recourse of seeking temporary or permanent benefits only through the Georgia State Board of Workers' Compensation. However, if your employer is shown to have blatantly disregarded specific state or federal safety directives, you may have sufficient cause for a lawsuit. In addition, if you can show that your injury resulted from a negligent act on the part of an equipment manufacturer, property owner or subcontractor on your work site, you may also have a legitimate third-party claim, in addition to workers' compensation benefits. Talk to us for a full case evaluation at no cost.
