Raleigh Industrial Accident Attorney Assisting Clients Throughout North Carolina

Industrial jobs are among the most hazardous occupations in the country. Workers are often performing in dangerous work environments with heavy machinery, construction equipment, and chemicals. Although the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) regulates these working conditions to reduce the risk of job site injuries, injuries are still common. At our North Carolina law firm, a Raleigh industrial accident attorney can help you or your loved ones after an industrial accident anywhere in the state.

Types of Industrial Accidents 

With nearly 40 years of experience handling injury claims throughout North Carolina, a Raleigh industrial accident attorney at our firm can review the circumstances of your accident and resulting injuries to determine if you can obtain compensation for your injuries.

We work with industrial workers in a variety of industries, from construction, energy, and automotive to pharmaceutical, transportation and agriculture. Common types of industrial accidents include:

• Toxic chemical exposure
• Mechanical failures
• Defective tools and equipment
• Being struck, or pinned by heavy machinery or falling structures
• Vehicle and commercial machinery accidents
• Falls from heights

Pursue Compensation After an Accident with a Raleigh Industrial Accident Attorney 

For many claims, workers’ compensation is often the best option to obtain the compensation you need after a debilitating accident. Workers’ compensation is a no-fault, income-replacement benefit intended to provide employees with income while they are unable to work due to an on-site job injury. 

To qualify for workers’ compensation, your injury must have happened while you were at work. Your Raleigh industrial accident lawyer can advise the appropriate next steps based on your unique situation, but it is important to immediately report the accident to your employer, and timely file your claim with the North Carolina Industrial Commission. 

Work with a Raleigh Industrial Accident Attorney to File a Third Party Liability Claim

In some cases, you and your North Carolina and Raleigh industrial accident attorney may consider filing a personal injury lawsuit against a third party, including: 

• Manufacturers of equipment that failed and caused or contributed to your accident
• Vendors, suppliers, or other workers on-site that caused or contributed to your accident
• Private citizens such as motorists who caused or contributed your accident. 

We strongly encourage injured workers and their families to speak with a Raleigh industrial accident attorney after an accident. We can advise you of your legal options, review the facts of your case, and help alleviate financial burden so you can focus on your health.

“We would like to express our gratitude to you (Hunt Willis) for accepting our case. First of all, when I called this law firm, a very sweet and kind lady answered the telephone and gave me assurance by asking and going over the accident with me, while my husband was in the hospital. I felt assured I was doing the right thing for us. She was so helpful in so many ways. What a professional lady. Secondly, we are much pleased that you have settled this case with the insurance company to receive the proper amount to assist us in so many ways. My husband and I are very happy with you and the firm in handling our case. You made us have confidence in your professional and integrity along with your assistant Ms. Routh, when you both came to see us in our home, in which we saw your compassion and thoughtfulness at that time. We will never forget what you have done for us, and we thank the lord for directing me to contact this firm. I’m glad I did.”
