Get the Settlement You Deserve for your Work-Related Accidents
Work injuries happen, not only in heavy industry and construction, but also in jobs involving a risk of car accidents, slip & falls, violent crime and other dangerous events. Cahn & Parra with over 100 years of combined experience know that people injured at work, and the families of those killed, should usually be covered by workers’ compensation laws — but in practice, some employers will do anything to avoid paying because it will ultimately raise their insurance costs.
