Operations of industrial equipment and machines are exposed to dangers that the average office worker does not have to face. Manufacturers have a duty to take reasonable steps to design safety protections into their products and to warn users about inherent dangers that cannot be removed. Employers also have a duty to ensure that safety devices such as shields and guards are not removed from equipment.
If you have been injured by an industrial product, you may be entitled to seek compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, disability, and other damages from those who are responsible. At the law office of Joseph J. Reinke in Oklahoma City, our attorneys represent industrial workers who are injured in industrial accidents such as:
- Construction equipment such as cranes, earth movers, excavators and backhoes
- Industrial equipment such as punches, presses and cutter
- Dangerous products and chemicals
Workers' Compensation and Personal Injury Lawsuits
If you are injured on the job, you are entitled to benefits from Oklahoma workers' compensation. However, workers' compensation benefits are limited and will not compensate you for everything you have lost.
In certain cases, you may be able to see additional compensation by filing a personal injury lawsuit against the party responsible for your injuries. If you or a family member has been injured by an industrial product, we offer a free initial consultation to discuss your case and your options.
Our lawyers have extensive experience in personal injury law, product liability laws and workers' compensation claims. As a result, our lawyers have the ability to pursue every available option to recover full and fair compensation for you.
