With any industrial workplace injury, a trial lawyer must always evaluate whether there is a potential third party case which would open the door for recoveries otherwise barred by the Pennsylvania Workers Compensation Statute. For example, was the injury caused by a defective piece of equipment such as a ladder, crane, hoist, conveyor, tractor, forklift, machine, product defect or the negligence of another.
Severe injuries in an industrial workplace are devastating and usually involve catastrophic injuries. Since industrial workplaces infrequently have no light or moderate duty work available, a serious injury can mean a loss of career. Since tradesmen are usually well paid and have excellent benefits, it's almost impossible for the injured worker to find a comparable job. Indeed, many households end up in divorce over this tragedy because of the financial stress.
