Frequently Asked Questions

Can I file a personal injury lawsuit and also receive workers compensation?
In most cases, workers compensation provides your exclusive remedy against your employer, but you may be able to sue a third party responsible for your injury. Dunbar & Dunbar can explain whether a third-party claim is available in your situation.
If I file bankruptcy, will I lose my workers compensation benefits?
Workers compensation benefits are typically protected in bankruptcy proceedings. However, the specific treatment depends on your situation, and the firm can explain how filing bankruptcy affects your particular benefits.
What should I do immediately after a workplace injury?
Report the injury to your employer right away, seek medical treatment, and document everything about how the injury occurred. Contact the firm as soon as possible so the attorneys can protect your rights from the beginning.
