Workplace Accidents

INJURED ON THE JOB AND THE COMPANY'S NOT HOLDING UP IT'S END OF THE BARGAIN?

Stop Being Polite... GET RUDE

Hurt on the Job? Stop Being Polite… and GET RUDE.

Picture this scene: you just suffered a back injury because your boss told you to lift something you knew required two people. You need to go the doctor and you need time to recover but you know, in the back of your mind, your family needs you to keep working to pay the bills. How are you going to pay for your medical bills? How are you going to support your family?  Then, you find out that the company has dismissed the incident as “minor,” or worse, denied it ever occurred. If this sounds like something all too familiar, know that you are not alone, and RUDIN LAW is ready to fight back when your employer doesn’t hold up its end of the bargain.
An accident at the workplace can be more complex than it seems. These events often involve employers and large companies with sizable insurance policies – and a great incentive to protect themselves and not you. When an injury-causing event occurs, representatives from these businesses will spring into action to gather evidence that supports their side of the story, not yours. And it’ll get worse before it gets better.
Either your employer or its representatives (think: insurance companies, etc.) will likely do whatever they can to minimize your claim and protect their interests. They may slow play your treatment or delay paying your wage loss. They may even deny your legitimate claim.

When you’re injured and in need, you need a lawyer who will settle the score with Corporate America and big insurance companies. At RUDIN LAW, we don’t just talk tough; we achieve results that truly make a difference. Whether you’re in Louisiana, Texas, or anywhere else in the country, RUDIN LAW is ready to take on those responsible for your workplace injuries and get you the justice you deserve. 

Businesses’ Obligations to their Workers

Businesses are expected to maintain a safe working environment for their workers, but this does not eliminate the risk of injury-causing incidents. Every year, countless people suffer serious injuries or even death due to workplace events. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics has reported an increase in fatal work injuries; in 2022, there were 5,486 fatal work injuries in the United States, which is a 5.7% increase from 5,190 in 2021. The fatal work injury rate also went up slightly, from 3.6 to 3.7 deaths per 100,000 full-time equivalent (FTE) workers. These statistics are from the Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries (CFOI).
Injury-causing events in workplaces run the gamut in type and magnitude. They can be as “small” incidents caused by the negligence of a coworker in an office space to as catastrophic as an explosion at a large factory, plant, or facility caused by far greater negligence. Other examples include:
  • Slips, Trips, and Falls
  • Machinery Accidents
  • Exposure to Hazardous Substances
  • Repetitive Motion Injuries
  • Falling Objects
  • Electrical Accidents
  • Vehicle-Related Incidents

Workers’ Compensation and Tort Claims

Generally, workplace injuries for which your employer is responsible are covered by workers’ compensation, which entitles the injured worker to medical treatment and lost wages. At the same time, workplace injuries may also be the fault of a third-party, which entitles the worker to bring a separate tort claim for the injuries and damages suffered. When you hire RUDIN LAW, we make sure all parties responsible for hurting you pay their fair share, whether its your employer or someone else.

The Louisiana Workforce Commission and Texas Workforce Commission, among others, offer great resources to understand your rights as a worker.
