Florida Workers’ Comp Attorney Explains What to Do When a Public Utility Injures You On The Job
April 5, 2022 – Lyle B. Masnikoff
You were injured on the job by a public utility. You have a workers’ compensation claim against your employer and their insurance company, and you should file notify your boss or your supervisor about the accident so that you can get your medical benefits, your lost wages, and eventually a lump sum money for a settlement for your workers’ compensation claim.
You also could have a third party claim or a personal injury case against the public utility, and you will want to get a personal injury attorney to handle that type of claim.
