Frequently Asked Questions

Can I sue my employer for negligence on a construction site?

Often workers comp is exclusive against your employer, but you may sue other contractors, property owners, or manufacturers depending on facts.

How do OSHA citations help my case?

They can support negligence per se arguments or help show industry standards—but admissibility rules vary.
