How Work-Related Duties During Auto Accidents Constitute Workers' Comp. Claims
Many people know that a car accident or auto accident claim may be filed in the case of injury from a motor vehicle accident caused by another person's negligence, but not many people know that car accidents occurring in the context of work may result in workers' compensation claims. If you have been hurt in a Ft. Lauderdale car accident or Dade, Palm Beach, or Broward County crash that occurred while you were on the job, a good workers' compensation attorney can help you recover compensation for pain and suffering, medical bills, and lost earnings so you can focus your efforts on getting better. Among the kinds of instances that typically constitute a workers' comp. claim are injuries from the following types of accidents:
a Palm Beach, Broward, or Dade County accident in your own vehicle while performing work-related duties
an accident involving a delivery vehicle
an on-duty crash involving a police car
a truck accident, if you are employed as the truck driver
a crash involving a construction vehicle
any other type of roadway accident related to work.
Whether your wreck occurred in a company car or in your own vehicle, you may be eligible for workers' comp. benefits if the crash occurred while you were doing work-related tasks.
