Frequently Asked Questions

All you need to know about your case.

Can I still file a workers' comp claim if the accident was my fault?

Yes, workers' compensation is a no-fault system, meaning fault doesn't matter. You can generally file a claim even if the accident was caused by your actions. However, exceptions exist. Lawfty's workers' comp lawyers can help you understand your eligibility and rights.

Can I sue my employer for a workplace injury?

In most cases, you can't sue your employer for a workplace injury due to workers' compensation laws. However, if a third party's negligence contributed to your injury, you may have a personal injury claim. Lawfty's legal team can assess your situation and guide you through the appropriate legal steps.

How would I know what to look for when hiring a personal injury lawyer? It's confusing!

Yes, this is why Lawfty was created. Our goal is to take the confusion out of this for you, so you can simply focus on getting well.

What is the difference between workman's comp and personal injury?

Workman's Compensation is a no-fault system governed by state law. It is an agreement between you and your employer that effectively states the following. Your employer will carry workman's compensation insurance that will compensate you for any injury you sustain at work. You can recover for injuries irrespective of fault. Whether you trip over your own two feet or get pushed by a fellow employee, work comp will cover your injuries. The catch is that you cannot sue your employer. Personal injury is a system that requires fault to be proven. Said another way, in order to recover for a personal injury you will need to prove that the person/entity that injured you was negligent. Generally speaking, personal injury claims are more valuable than work comp claims.

What is workers' compensation?

Workers' compensation provides benefits to employees injured or sickened due to work-related activities. If you're injured at work or suffer a work-related illness, you're entitled to medical treatment, wage replacement, and more. Lawfty's experienced workers' comp attorneys can guide you through the claims process.
