Except for a very few instances, accidents like this are handled through an employer’s workers’ comp policy. Regardless of how the accident is handled, however, the accident happened on the job, which would make the victim eligible for those benefits. Even if what caused the accident wasn’t necessarily caused by his employer. For example, is David was working with some defective piece of equipment, and that caused his injuries, then it’s possible that liability for the accident would fall ultimately onto the manufacturer, and he would have a claim against them. However, workers’ comp benefits would still come from his employer, as he was working when the accident happened.

I'm a former employee. I had brought up this exact scenario and suggested a maintenance procedure that would eliminate the possibility of this type injury. Obviously my warning went unheeded.

I was actually a couple cars back from this wreck, one of the first on the scene, and helped administer CPR on the victims. The truck driver was going way too fast, but it was actually his trailer that swung around and hit the suv, the semi-truck ended in the median.

A lot of people say smack about lawyers, but I want to say that I'm glad there is a way that people who are wronged by corporate neglect can get justice and force change. We are living in a world where corporations and govt care less than ever about common people, and I support your work. I hope I will never need your services.

Thank you for posting these accident articles on your site. At the company that I work for, e deal with monitoring construction activity and work around trenches and all sorts of construction equipment/vehicles. I sometimes wonder if construction companies have enough safety training to inform employees of how to protect themselves while on the job.
