Frequently Asked Questions

If I'm receiving workers' compensation, can I also sue someone for my injury?

Potentially, yes. Jacoby & Meyers evaluates whether third parties or product defects caused your injury, which might support a personal injury claim separate from workers' compensation benefits.

How do I know if my case qualifies for personal injury damages?

The firm reviews circumstances like third-party negligence, defective equipment, or unsafe conditions that created your injury. Personal injury claims often apply when someone other than your employer bears responsibility.

What's the difference between a workers' comp case and a personal injury case?

Workers' compensation provides set benefits regardless of fault but limits recovery. Personal injury claims require proving negligence but can recover additional damages like pain and suffering when applicable.
