A Work Injury May Involve More Than Workers' Comp.
A workplace injury may create a workers' compensation claim, a personal injury claim against a negligent third party, or both. Fusco Law focuses on identifying outside companies and individuals whose conduct contributed to the accident.

Building the Case From the First Call
Workers' compensation generally addresses medical treatment, temporary disability, and disability benefits through the employer. A third-party case may seek additional damages when a property owner, contractor, driver, manufacturer, vendor, or another company caused the injury.
The two claims must be coordinated carefully. Benefits, liens, evidence, medical evaluations, and settlement decisions in one matter can affect the other.

Workplace Accidents FAQs
Is workers' compensation my only option?
Not always. If a negligent driver, property owner, contractor, manufacturer, or other outside party caused the accident, a separate personal injury claim may be available.
Can I pursue both claims at the same time?
Potentially, yes. The claims involve different rights and damages but must be coordinated because workers' compensation carriers may assert reimbursement rights against a third-party recovery.
What if I was labeled an independent contractor?
A label alone may not decide employment status or legal rights. The actual working relationship, control, payment, equipment, and other factors should be evaluated.
The insurance company has a team. You should too.
