Injuries Caused by Falling Objects at Work

Los Angeles Workers' Compensation Attorney

Work related accidents occur every day, resulting in serious injuries to employees.  In California our employees are protected from injuries by workers' compensation laws.  If you or a loved one has been injured in a work related accident resulting from a falling object, contact a Los Angeles workers' compensation lawyer to discuss your case and find out all of the potential benefits you are entitled to when injured on the job.

Although it may appear that being injured by a falling object at work may occur mainly in a construction type job, in actuality this type of accident can occur in any type of work location.  An office worker can be struck by something falling off a shelf, a warehouse worker could be injured if improper stacking of merchandise on a high shelf came down on them, or a utility worker could have equipment fall on them while working on cables or wires.  Depending on the size of the object, this type of accident could cause serious injuries to the head and neck, or even broken bones.  These injuries could lead to extensive medical treatment and disability, resulting in your not being able to work for some time.

At the Pacific Attorney Group we strive to work with our clients in order to provide them with the information they need when pursuing a claim for their injuries.  By law, when injured on the job you are entitled to a portion of your weekly salary, coverage for your medical treatment, rehabilitation during recovery and even training for a different vocation if you can no longer perform  your same duties.  Without the help of our knowledgeable workers' compensation attorneys, you may not be aware of what you are legally allowed within the workers' comp system.  Our office will ensure you are treated fairly and help you in seeking to recover any compensation you are entitled to.
