Albuquerque Workplace Accident Lawyer

At Will Ferguson & Associates, we excel at recovering compensation for serious personal and workplace injuries resulting from workplace accidents.

If you were injured while on the job or work in New Mexico, you are entitled to workers’ compensation benefits. But you may also be entitled to additional benefits through a personal injury claim if your workplace accident was a result of negligence by your employer, a contractor, a subcontractor, a vendor or an equipment manufacturer associated with your job site.

Are you getting your benefits but they’re not enough to cover your medical bills and living expenses?

Then our Albuquerque workplace accident lawyers at Will Ferguson & Associates may be able to help you recover additional compensation through a third-party workplace accident claim. Job safety is everyone’s responsibility but accident prevention and the responsibility to eliminate the risk of injury to employees or workers begins with the employer, contractors, subcontractors and vendors running things on the work area.

If you were hurt while on work in Albuquerque, call a workplace accident attorney at Will Ferguson & Associates, a law firm that is unmatched in its ability and ready to help the workers in need to win verdicts and settlements.

What’s a third-party claim? It’s a claim made against someone other than your insurer who contributed to your injury. Examples include:

When unsafe scaffolding, broken ladders, electrical outlets, unsafe chemicals, a poorly designed office chair, or other defective or dangerous product or equipment is the culprit behind an injury at work in Albuquerque NM. This also can include malfunctioning workplace tools, including drills, nail guns or saws.

Auto accidents

When you’re injured while driving on the job in New Mexico— as a salesperson, delivery person, or while performing some other work function that requires you to drive as part of your work duties — and someone else’s negligence contributes to a work crash.

Premises liability

When a poorly maintained work property is the cause of your injury while at work, such as a broken walkway, slippery floor, rickety stairs or falling debris, and contributes to your accident.

Insurance bad faith

When an insurance company ignores or denies to notice a work accident claim, refuses to help and pay or doesn’t pay in full when coverage was in place.

Other cases

Other kinds of cases could include the negligence of an outside contractor on a work or job site who contributes to an accident, explosion, fire, flood, or other injurious events.

If you were injured on the job, it is extremely important to file third-party workplace accident claims in a timely manner.
