Claim it before someone else doesGetting hurt on the job in Union City raises two questions at once: how do I get treated, and who actually pays. Under California law, workers' compensation normally covers you no matter who was at fault, and it is usually the only claim you can bring against your own employer. When someone outside your employer contributed to the injury, though, a separate personal injury claim may exist alongside the comp case. Think of a delivery route on I-880 or Whipple Road where another driver causes a crash, a subcontractor's mistake on a job site, a defective tool, or a property owner who left a hazard in place. Public collision records for Union City show 179 injury crashes and 240 people injured in 2025, and plenty of the driving in this part of Alameda County happens on the clock. We review both workers' compensation and third-party claims, and we work on contingency, so there is no fee unless there is a recovery.
Workers' compensation is usually your exclusive remedy against your employer, but a negligent subcontractor, property owner, equipment maker, or driver can be held separately responsible. We check for both.
You have 30 days to report the injury to your employer and two years to bring a third-party claim. An early review means neither window slips by while you focus on healing.
