Representing People in Dangerous Workplace Accidents
Portland, Oregon — Astoria, Oregon
Most workers employed at Oregon's manufacturing, construction and industrial sites are familiar with workers' compensation laws. Information regarding workers' compensation benefits is posted at most locales, and many workers have friends who have received temporary or even permanent workers' compensation benefits.
Many workers are less familiar with laws regarding dangerous workplace accidents and Employers' Liability Law. Employers' Liability Law is a powerful legal tool that can help you win compensation when you are injured at work due to negligence on the part of your employer.
Serving the North Coast since 1987. Call lawyer Martin L. Alvey to discuss your dangerous workplace accident and Employers' Liability Law claim. Portland 503.928.3848 ● Astoria 503.325.5509
The personal injury law firm of Martin L. Alvey, P.C. has handled numerous Employers' Liability Law claims and can help you fight for the compensation you deserve.
Employers' Liability Law (ELL) requires companies (including general contractors and sub contractors) who operate potentially dangerous work environments to use all possible devices, care and precaution to protect workers on the job site. When companies commit ELL violations, they are liable for injuries and can be sued by workers, including workers receiving workers' compensation benefits. Common ELL violations and accidents include:
- OSHA violations
- Safety harness violations
- Explosions
- Manlift, scaffolding, roof and crane violations
- Falls from dangerous heights
- Fuel errors and gas leaks
Do not miss an opportunity to receive compensation for your injuries. Attorney Martin Alvey has handled ELL claims involving explosions resulting in hearing and ear damage, falls from unsafe scaffolding and roofs, crane accidents and tip-overs, safety harness malfunctions and failure to supply harnesses, construction accident injuries and natural gas leaks.
