Workplace Injury and Toxic Exposure

The firm has extensive and varied experience representing injured workers in workplace injury and occupational toxic exposure cases.  Ordinarily, when a worker is injured through his or her employment, the worker is only entitled to limited workers’ compensation benefits.  However, if the workplace injury results from the negligence or fault of a person or party who is not a co-worker, the injured worker may be entitled to a recovery beyond workers’ compensation benefits.  Also, a worker who suffers from some illness or disease from a toxic exposure in the workplace may be entitled to damages beyond those recoverable in the workers’ compensation system.

Martin & Jones has helped injured workers receive the recovery they deserve in the following type cases:

• exposure to asbestos

• exposure to silica

• exposure to cotton dust

• various chemical exposures

• defectively designed scaffolding

• construction injuries

• exposure to nickel and chromium from metal spray work

• injuries at another employer’s plant
