In many work injury cases, you have more legal rights for compensation under the law than you may think. If you or a loved one is the victim of a work injury, it is vital that you maximize your case’s range.

Advantages to Adding the 3rd Party

The San Bernardino County California Work Injury Lawyers at DiMarco | Araujo | Montevideo have been helping people recover and win their cases since 1979. They have the resources and experience to help maximize your case. They will do everything they can legally do to make you whole again.

That includes investigating your case to look for other possible responsible parties in addition to your employer or place of work. The additional responsible parties are known legally as Third Parties. When an injury or accident happens on the job or at the workplace and it has been caused by the negligence of someone other than your employer (the third party), you may be able to receive compensation above that provided under the California workers' compensation laws.

We truly believe that it is right for those who caused you to be injured should to be a part of your recovery. When a Third Party is involved in your work injury case, the San Bernardino County California Workers' Compensation attorneys at DiMarco | Araujo | Montevideo will file both a worker's compensation claim and a civil legal cause of action against the additional Third Party who caused your injury or accident. The Third Party could be a person or a company. A Third Party civil lawsuit and a workers’ compensation claim are separate injury claims that are distinct. These claims, although separate, are closely intertwined.

Cases Need to Be Coordinated

Our Work Injury attorneys are very experienced in handling this complex scenario. We have been representing injured clients who are eligible for both Workers’ Compensation claims and Third Party civil causes of action, simultaneously, for over 30 years.

These cases that involve both a California Workers’ Compensation claim and a civil Third Party work injury claim are a delicate process. This is because the claims are intertwined and they can affect the other, positively and negatively. A mistake in either case at any point during the process can mean your options and rights to compensation under both claims can be limited. San Bernardino County California Workers' Compensation lawyers at DiMarco | Araujo | Montevideo have extensive experience in successfully coordinating and handling these types of cases. It is second nature to the attorneys and staff in our firm.

We’ll Maximize Your Recovery

San Bernardino County California Work Injury lawyers will work hard every day to be able to ensure you get the maximum recovery. The fact of the matter is that the California Workers' Compensation Law provides for less compensation as compared to a third party claim. We have always been alarmed how many people and firms miss adding the third party claim to the recovery strategy.

As an example, with only a workers' compensation claim you will only receive up to two thirds of your lost income. Compare that scenario to the possibility of recovering 100% of your lost earnings through a civil Third Party personal injury lawsuit. Work injury victims are only allowed pain and suffering damages when they are filing a Third Party claim. Pain and suffering recovery damages are not awarded by for Workers’ Compensation claims. San Bernardino County California Work Injury attorneys will strongly advocate for you to obtain your maximum compensation for your work injuries, lost income and catastrophic and serious harm.
