Question:

Can I sue my employer after a workplace injury?

Answer:

One of the questions we get here at the firm is whether or not you can sue an employer if you got injured at work. The short answer to that is, if you get injured at work, the way that you will process your claim and hold your employer accountable for the injury that was caused is to file a claim with California’s Workers’ Compensation Board. The board is typically the exclusive place for injured employees to go get the treatment that they need, as well as to be compensated for those claims. The California Workers’ Comp Board is specifically tailored to address the injuries related to injuries occurred while at work.

If you’ve been injured at work and you need assistance in filing a claim with California Workers’ Compensation Board, it’s important for you to find an attorney that specializes in that area of the law. If you have any questions regarding that process, feel free to give me a call. I’m more than happy to answer any questions that you may have.
