Miami Work Injuries

Miami is one of the largest cities in the US. It is a major port of call for cruise ships as well as a tourist destination.

Due to its size and economic growth, it has some of the largest employers in the state, with new businesses opening in the city all the time.

Workplace Injuries in Miami and Surrounding Areas

While Miami offers many work opportunities, each year employees pursuing these opportunities are seriously injured or even killed in the workplace – often due to preventable injuries and accidents. If you are injured in Miami, your injuries may be very costly and you may lose your ability to further your career or to earn the salary you are used to. To protect your financial future and your family, you may wish to speak to a personal injury attorney in Miami to review all your options. You can always contact the Flaxman Law Group if you need to speak with a legal professional about your case.

Fatalities in the Miami Workplace

Job-related fatalities devastate families and often also cause severe financial loss for entire households. In addition to final expenses, grieving families may lose an income earner in their family and may face significant final medical expenses. In some cases the family may have a right to pursue a wrongful death claim in Miami or their community. Compensation from pursuing a legal claim can help the family pay for the costs related to the injury and can help pay for the lost wages of a loved one.

Unfortunately, workplace violence has become a serious issue for Florida workers. In recent years, there have been numerous reports of people being killed on the job due to violence. Employers have a responsibility to provide a safe workplace for employees, and that means carefully screening other employees and providing a safe workplace with reasonable security precautions.

  • There are many reasons why workplace violence can occur:
  • employers fail to notice aggressive or violent behavior from employees or failed to act on it
  • employers fail to screen employees and clients
  • employers fail to secure a property and its windows, doors, and security systems
  • employers fail to respond to threats and unsafe work conditions
  • employers fail to react to a violent outbursts or other risky behaviors

When employers are negligent in providing a safe workplace and employees are injured as a result, employees who have been injured may have a legal claim. They may be able to file a premises liability claim in Miami or their community or another type of legal claim. If you have been injured on the workplace due to workplace violence, contact a personal injury attorney in your community to learn more about your rights and options.
