Can I sue my employer if I got injured while working for them?
Whether or not you can sue your employer for an injury on the job can depend on a number of factors. First, you'll need to prove that your employer caused the injury. You'll also need to show that your employer's negligence was the cause of your injury. This is a tough case to prove on your own. You may need an experienced attorney to help you with your case.
If your employer is not insured, you may be able to sue them in a civil lawsuit. However, you may need to prove that they were not covered by workers' compensation insurance. In New York, this is a condition that you must meet to be eligible for workers' compensation. You may also be able to sue your employer for medical expenses.
You may also be able to sue an employer if you are suffering emotional trauma because of the workplace. You can also sue your employer if you feel your employer was discriminatory against you. However, you will need to gather all the documentation and proof to support your claim. You can also file a personal injury lawsuit against a third party, such as a vendor or contractor.
