Claim it before someone else doesTruckee's economy runs on ski resorts, restaurants, road maintenance crews, and construction tied to the area's growth, and each of those jobs carries its own injury risks — icy loading docks, heavy equipment, ladders, delivery vehicles navigating Donner Pass Road or I-80. Nevada County workers hurt on the job usually go through the workers' compensation system first, since it's typically the exclusive remedy against an employer no matter who was at fault. But that's not always the end of the story. If a subcontractor, equipment manufacturer, property owner, or another driver contributed to the accident, a separate third-party injury claim may be possible alongside your workers' comp benefits. We handle workplace injury claims in Truckee and can review both workers' comp and third-party liability to explain what applies to your situation.
California generally treats workers' comp as the exclusive remedy against an employer, but a negligent third party like a subcontractor or another driver can open a separate claim. We can help sort out whether both apply to your situation.
You generally have 30 days to report a workplace injury to your employer, and retaliation for doing so is illegal under California law. Getting in touch with us early can help you understand your rights during that process.
