Claim it before someone else doesGetting hurt at work in Rancho Cucamonga usually starts a workers' compensation claim, and for many people that is where it ends. California law makes workers' comp the exclusive remedy against your employer regardless of fault. What often goes unnoticed is the second question: did someone other than your employer contribute to the injury? A subcontractor on a job site, a property owner who ignored a hazard, a company that built faulty equipment, or another driver on I-15 or SR-210 while you were making a work run can each be responsible in a separate claim. Those third-party claims carry a two-year deadline and can cover losses workers' comp does not. We handle workplace injury cases in San Bernardino County and review both workers' compensation and third-party claims. We work on contingency, so there is no fee unless there is a recovery. Report the injury to your employer within 30 days, then contact us to review whether a second path applies to you.
