Compensation Attorney for a Work-Related Car Accident
If you suffer serious injuries in a work-related accident caused by another person, you may be entitled to compensation from two sources — the negligent party and the workers' compensation system. This applies to accidents in company-owned vehicles as well as your own car if you were performing work-related tasks.
Powell & Denny is a personal injury and workers' compensation law firm. Our firm represents victims of all types of work-related car and truck accidents, including:
- Accidents in a company car
- Accidents in your car while performing work-related duties
- Truck driver accidents
- Construction vehicle accidents
- Delivery vehicle accidents
- And other types of on-the-job accidents
We understand how to advance both types of claims, and will work to maximize the compensation you receive from both the workers' compensation system and insurance companies.

Workers' Compensation and Third-Party Claims
In a work-related car accident caused by another driver, the accident victim has both a workers' compensation claim and a third-party claim against the other driver's insurance company. Dual claim cases such as these, however, can become very complex.
At Powell & Denny, we work frequently with both types of claims. We understand the interactions of both types of claims and will work to maximize the total compensation you receive. As your workers' compensation lawyer, we will seek to obtain all the benefits you are entitled to under that system. We will also press forward your claim for financial losses, pain, and suffering against the insurance company for the negligent party.
Act Quickly to Preserve Your Rights
There are strict deadlines for filing workers' compensation and third-party claims. You need to act quickly to preserve your ability to claim compensation, as well as evidence that will be vital to your case.
You must report the accident to your employer. But before making any statement to an insurance company representative, talk with an attorney at Powell & Denny. We can explain your rights and discuss what we can do to maximize the compensation you receive.
