If you’ve suffered an injury due to unsafe working conditions, machinery accidents, or employer negligence, our team is ready to advocate on your behalf. We’ll work tirelessly to hold the responsible parties accountable and secure the maximum compensation for your medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

Navigating the legal landscape after an accident can be overwhelming. That’s why we focus on securing comprehensive compensation across various damages, including:

  • Medical Expenses – Coverage for hospital bills, rehabilitation, and ongoing medical care.
  • Lost Wages – Compensation for income lost due to an inability to work.
  • Vocational Rehabilitation – Financial support for retraining or new employment opportunities.
  • Permanent Disability Benefits – If you are left with lasting impairments, we ensure you receive appropriate compensation

In Central Nebraska, companies like Tyson Fresh Meats, JBS Swift Beef, and IBP employ numerous workers in roles that carry inherent risks. While these companies put significant effort into creating safe working environments, accidents can unfortunately occur.

Common Workplace Accidents

Slips, Trips, and Falls

Falls are one of the most frequent type of accident in workplace injury cases. Whether it’s a slip from scaffolding or a trip over a stray wire, these incidents can happen in the blink of an eye. And regardless of how far you fall, the injuries sustained can be life-altering. If you’ve experienced such a mishap, it’s crucial to understand your rights and options for recovery.

Large Industrial Vehicle Accidents

Construction sites can be dangerous places, especially when large industrial vehicles are involved. These powerful machines, if not operated with care, can cause serious harm. Unfortunately, accidents happen when vehicles are mishandled, leading to tragic incidents where workers or pedestrians are crushed or injured.

Electrocutions

Construction sites can be hazardous, especially when it comes to electrical safety. Live wires are often present throughout a building under development, and even a minor error can result in serious exposure. This can lead to devastating injuries, but precautions can be taken to minimize the risk.

Falling Materials

Safety measures are crucial on work sites, yet hazards like falling debris still exist. This seemingly simple hazard can lead to serious and often debilitating injuries, impacting the well-being of employees and the operations of businesses.
