Industrial and Construction Accidents
Anyone who has suffered a catastrophic injury in a construction or industrial accident should immediately report the incident to his or her employer. The employer must then provide workers' compensation forms -- but even if you receive the proper forms, there is no guarantee that you will receive all the money you need to cover medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering and other expenses arising from the accident.
Scaffolding and Ladder Accidents
Scaffolding accidents are a leading cause of accidental injury and death on construction sites. The Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA) has specific guidelines for the installation and use of all types of scaffolding. Still, accidents and injuries occur with alarming frequency.
Premises Liability
If you have an injury accident on someone else's property, you may be entitled to compensation under premises liability law. A property owner or occupier has an obligation to keep visitors safe from harm by eliminating potential hazards or posting prominent warnings. Slip and fall accidents are fairly common, and Tawwater Law Firm, PLLC offers the expertise you need to obtain the compensation you deserve.
Child Injury
Children can be injured in a variety of ways, and often the injury is minor and due to the child's natural lack of caution. Sometimes, though, negligence on the part of another party is involved. Negligent supervision, product liability and medical malpractice are a few examples of potential causes of action in a premises liability case involving a child.
About Personal Injury Law
Personal injury law, sometimes called tort law, allows people who have been injured as a result of another party's carelessness or intentional misconduct to seek compensation. A wide array of incidents can be the basis for a personal injury case, from motor vehicle accidents to medical malpractice to defective products and more. The couple of components all personal injury cases have in common are liability (another person's breach of duty), and damages (compensation).
Dog Bites
As a strict liability state, Oklahoma holds dog owners responsible for any injury their dog causes, whether they were aware that the dog might behave that way or not. A dog does not have to have demonstrate aggressive behavior beforehand. As a result, successfully proving a dog bite case is that much easier for a victim. Our personal injury lawyers can help ensure proper financial compensation for victims of dog bites.
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning
Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless gas emitted by many household appliances. This gas can cause serious, lasting injuries, and even death. If you or a loved one has sustained an injury from carbon monoxide due to the negligence of another person or party, our attorneys can aggressively fight for you and your rights, seeking the maximum amount of compensation for your medical bills, mental anguish, and any other injuries sustained.
Bodily Injury
A bodily injury can occur during an accident, and can be caused by another party's negligent or reckless behavior. If you have experienced a bodily injury that has caused significant changes in your day to day life, our attorneys can help you seek proper compensation. We can work aggressively to seek justice in the form of compensation for medical bills, lost wages, future rehabilitation, and emotional suffering.
Paralysis Injury
A paralysis injury typically occurs as a result of a slip and fall or car accident, and poses a severe interruption to daily life for victims. If the wrongdoing or negligence of another party has resulted in a paralysis injury for you or a loved one, or if your insurance company is attempting to minimize your claim, we can help.
Office and Professional Injuries
Office and professional injuries occur in relation to an employee’s job. A workplace injury generally occurs because the work environment is unsafe; the equipment is defective or the premises are dangerous, for example. Our firm can help you obtain compensation so that you can provide for your family and cover the cost of expenses related to your injury.
