Indiana Workplace Accidents Attorneys

On-The-Job Accident Compensation

Doehrman Chamberlain

Many people come to us for their free consultations after sustaining work-related injuries, thinking that all they can get is workers' compensation benefits. However, in many cases, workers' compensation is not nearly enough to adequately compensate an injured worker for the costs of the injuries, lost wages and pain and suffering. In a large number of workplace injury litigation cases, there are other avenues to explore for further compensation other than just workers' comp.

Contact us today online or by telephone at 800-269-3443 to speak with an experienced Indiana workplace accident attorney.

Our Indianapolis workplace accidents lawyers have the skill, understanding and experience needed to get you full compensation for medical expenses, lost wages and pain and suffering. We take cases for clients who have been seriously injured at work, and workers' comp simply doesn't cover the costs of the injuries.

Third-Party Claims ∙ Compensation for Workplace Injuries

One of the most important aspects of third-party liability cases involves the concept of third-party liability. Injured workers are generally entitled to workers' compensation regardless of who was at fault. But the amount that an injured worker receives from workers' compensation is often not nearly enough to truly cover the expenses. If there is another person, company or other entity — other than you or your employer — responsible in part for the injuries, our law firm can bring a third-party liability claim for further compensation.

We handle third-party liability claims for many construction accident cases, including:

We have a track record of successful verdicts and settlements. With more than 60 combined years of experience, our workplace injury compensation attorneys know how to get you the money you truly need for the injuries you have suffered.
