No industry is immune to workplace injuries. We represent employees from all types of jobs and sectors, including construction, transportation, manufacturing, healthcare, and office environments.

Common workplace accidents include:

• Falls from ladders, scaffolding, or roofs

• Machinery or equipment malfunctions

If your injury happened at work, you may have more than one legal option.

Can You Sue for a Workplace Injury in Georgia?

In many cases, workers’ compensation is your exclusive remedy against your employer. However, you may also have a third-party claim if someone other than your employer caused or contributed to the accident — such as:

• A subcontractor or vendor

• A negligent driver (if you were hit while working)

• A manufacturer of faulty equipment

• A property owner (if you were injured off-site)

Best Law can help determine whether you have a third-party lawsuit in addition to your workers’ comp claim.

What Compensation Can You Recover?

If you’re filing for workers’ compensation, you may be eligible for:

• Medical treatment

• Temporary total or partial disability benefits

• Permanent impairment compensation

• Vocational rehabilitation

If you have a third-party personal injury claim, you can also pursue:

• Full lost wages and loss of future earnings

• Pain and suffering

• Emotional distress

• Punitive damages (in cases of gross negligence)

We evaluate all available legal avenues to maximize your recovery.

How Long Do You Have to File a Workplace Injury Claim?

In Georgia:

• Workers’ compensation claims must be reported within 30 days of the injury

• You typically have 1 year from the date of the injury to file a formal workers’ comp claim

• Personal injury lawsuits against third parties generally have a 2-year statute of limitations

It’s critical to act quickly — both to preserve your rights and secure evidence.
