Frequently Asked Questions​

Report the injury to your employer or site supervisor immediately and seek medical attention. Document the scene if possible—take photos, gather witness names, and preserve any physical evidence. Then contact GP Law Group to explore your legal options beyond workers’ compensation.
While workers’ compensation is the first avenue for most job-related injuries, you may also have a third-party personal injury claim against a subcontractor, equipment manufacturer, property owner, or another negligent party.

Common cases include:

  • Falls from scaffolding or ladders
  • Electrocutions
  • Crane or machinery accidents
  • Trench collapses
  • Falling objects
  • Unsafe work environments or lack of protective gear

In addition to workers’ compensation, a third-party injury claim may include:

  • Full medical expenses
  • Lost wages and future earning capacity
  • Pain and suffering
  • Disability or disfigurement
  • Emotional distress
You typically have two years from the date of injury to file a personal injury claim. Workers’ compensation claims have a one-year deadline, and claims involving public entities may require notice within 6 months.
Yes. Workers’ comp may not fully cover your losses, and you could have additional claims. GP Law Group can evaluate your case for third-party liability and ensure you’re receiving the maximum compensation allowed by law.
