What if I get injured in a motor vehicle crash while I am on the job?
When you are injured in the course and scope of your employment, you are entitled to treatment and compensation under Colorado’s Workers Compensation Program. Your employer pays for this coverage. Your medical treatment will be provided for you at no cost, and your wages will be paid during the period you are out of work. If the accident was not your fault, the at-fault person is still responsible for the damage that they caused.
What if a Third Party caused my On-The-Job Injury?
If you believe your Greeley accident was caused by a third party not connected to your employer, you probably have a third party case. This could be an auto accident, a faulty piece of equipment, an injury related to a dangerous condition on the worksite, or others. Any time you are hurt at work, and it was caused by someone other than your employer or a co-worker, you should contact Fuller Law to investigate possible claims.
