Injured in a Work Accident? Let Us Help.
If you were injured in an accident at work, you are typically eligible to collect worker's compensation benefits from your employer's North Carolina workman's comp insurance. If your accident was caused by faulty equipment or negligence on the part of the property owner or another contractor, you may also be entitled to seek additional compensation for medical expenses, lost earnings and punitive damages for pain and suffering.
