Your employer is legally required to provide you with a safe place to work, including proper equipment, a structurally and environmentally safe workplace, and adequate instruction when needed. When an employer fails to fulfill this essential duty, it is often the employees who suffer in the form of workplace injuries.

Injured Workers Over 50
Our attorneys know that a workplace injury can be particularly devastating for someone over the age of 50. Older workers are established in their careers; if they cannot go back to work, it can be difficult for them to change career paths. If you have experienced a workplace injury, are over the age of 50 and can no longer work, you may be eligible for permanent total disability benefits. If you are permanently, totally disabled, you will receive a weekly disability check for the rest of your life.
Time Is of the Essence
If you have experienced a workplace injury, you will be hearing from insurance companies and possibly lawyers in a matter of days and sometimes even hours. It is important to obtain legal representation as soon as possible following your accident. Call Harris Law Offices at 402-817-0148 or 888-339-7938 to speak to our attorneys or contact us online.
