Construction worker injuries, driver injuries, struck-by incidents
If you were injured in a work zone/construction zone while working - whether driving a company vehicle, making deliveries, or traveling between job sites - Pennsylvania law allows two separate claims:
27 years experience. $50+ million recovered. Free consultation.
(215) 206-9068If you were hurt in a work zone/construction zone accident at work while working, Pennsylvania law often gives you two separate paths to recovery at the same time, and using both is usually the only way to be fully compensated.
Workers' compensation comes from your employer's insurance and is no-fault, so it applies even if the crash was partly your fault. It pays 100% of reasonable and necessary medical treatment and roughly two-thirds of your average weekly wage while you cannot work. It does not pay for pain and suffering or the final third of your wages.
A third-party personal injury claim applies when someone other than your employer caused the crash, such as another motorist. That claim recovers what workers' comp leaves on the table, including full wage loss and pain and suffering. Many injured workers never learn they had this second claim until it is too late.
How we work: Attorney Michael Cardamone is a Certified Workers' Compensation Specialist who handles your workers' comp claim directly, and we coordinate with our heavyweight Personal Injury colleagues on any third-party case so the two work together to maximize your total recovery.
Yes. If you were working when the crash happened and someone else was at fault, Pennsylvania law generally lets you collect workers' compensation through your employer and pursue a separate third-party claim against the at-fault party. Together they recover far more than workers' comp alone.
No. Pennsylvania workers' compensation only covers medical bills and roughly two-thirds of lost wages. Pain and suffering can only be recovered through a third-party personal injury claim against the party who caused the crash.
