Third Party Liability

An employee who is injured on the job is eligible for workers' compensation benefits. However, if a third party was responsible for the injuries — such as a product manufacturer or a contractor or driver from another company — the injured worker may be eligible for additional benefits.  At the Law Office of David A. Bolson in South Orange, we help injured workers seek benefits through a third-party liability claim. 

Exploring Third-Party Liability Claims  

Pursuing a third-party liability claim allows an individual to seek additional compensation after suffering a work injury beyond those benefits provided through workers' compensation. Through a third-party liability claim, individuals can seek compensation for additional medical benefits, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages. Examples of a potential third-party liability claim in a construction accident include: 

• A negligent product manufacturer whose dangerous product caused an injury
• A negligent contractor, engineer or architect     
• A car accident that occurred in a company vehicle     
• An unsafe work site
