DALLAS COUNTY JOB AND WORK INJURY LAWYER
WORK AND JOB INJURY ATTORNEY DALLAS COUNTY
In Dallas County many job and work injuries are covered by workers compensation insurance. Unfortunately sometimes the payments offered are insufficient, or in some cases benefits are refused entirely. You should be aware if you accept a workers compensation you are releasing the company from its liability. This means it may be difficult or impossible to file additional suit for compensation.
This is the reason why, when you are affected by a job or work injury, before you accept any form of payment you should contact the Dallas County Job / work injury lawyers at The Goolsby Law Firm. You need someone on your side who understands how to fully investigate your accident, present your claim, and get you the maximum compensation to help you to recover.
Strains from lifting heavy objects slip and fall, being hit by falling or moving objects, falling from ladders, or other equipment, cuts from tools, and vehicle accidents, are some of the common causes of Job/work injuries.

The next thing you should do is contact an attorney at The Goolsby Law Firm for a free consultation. They will be able to tell you if you have an actionable claim, and where to go from here.
You may have been taken to the Hospital ER, however they will simply treat the symptoms, check your vital signs, and then probably release you with pain medication. It is essential you are examined by a specialist job and work injuries doctor as soon as possible. They will be able to spot any hidden issues that may lead to long term problems.
Before you accept workers’ compensation benefits, you should be aware that by doing so you are releasing the company of liability.

For this reason it is important that you contact our office before accepting any workers’ comp payment or other settlement. Meeting with one of our attorneys from The Goolsby Law Firm will provide you with an evaluation of your case, and allow you to consider your legal options.

Even if you have already accepted workers compensation, you may still be able to pursue a third party for compensation, if they were in any way responsible for your accident or wrongful death of a relative.
In the event that you have experienced any sort of accident at work because of the carelessness of your company, you could be eligible to claim for personal injury.
