Workplace Injury
Nearly every occupation comes with some degree of risk of injury. From something as simple as lifting a heavy object to something as devastating as exposure to toxic chemicals, workplace injuries are common. In fact, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) estimates that nearly 3 million people are injured in workplace accidents each year. And unfortunately, there are also at least 5,000 workplace deaths each year.
A workplace injury can have a devastating impact on the victim and their loved ones. Having a good attorney representing you, like those at Lara & Luna, APC, can help you understand your legal rights and the available options for recovery.
