Saltz Mongeluzzi Barrett & Bendesky's team
of workplace accident attorneys is one of the country's leading
workplace accident law firms.
SMBB has decades of experience representing victims who have
been catastrophically injured or killed as a result of unsafe
industrial or workplace conditions. In these cases, the
plant owners know that an unsafe condition or potential risk exists
- and do nothing to either correct the hazard or inform
unsuspecting workers of the potential hazard.
Some of the most common hazards include:
- Chemicals
- Gas explosions
- Heat and burn risks
- Malfunctioning equipment
Proven Results
Saltz Mongeluzzi Bendesky & Barrett's industrial accident
attorneys and workplace accident attorneys have secured
numerous multi-million dollar verdicts and settlements
for our clients in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and New Jersey,
including:
- $16.5
million for a millwright who suffered burns over 60
percent of his body when hot slag struck him inside a kiln in
Lehigh County, Pa.
-
$11.7 million settlement for three plant workers killed
and eight others injured - including one seriously burned - when a
defective valve led to an acetylene gas explosion
Workplace Accident Expertise
From analyzing evidence to selecting the most qualified safety
and medical experts, SMBB's premises liability attorneys have
mastered the difficult task of establishing a relationship between
a property and the injuries that occur there. Working with
independent engineering experts, SMBB attorneys thoroughly
investigate such factors as:
- The property owners' prior knowledge of the hazardous condition
and their failure to correct or warn others about it
- Adherence to OSHA regulations and the companies' own safety
procedures
Finally, their innovative use of video brochures -
mini-documentaries that powerfully illustrate our clients' pain and
suffering and include victim, family, witness and expert interviews
and defendant depositions - often convinces defendants to agree to
high-value settlements.
Besides representing our injured clients, SMBB attorneys also
are advocates for making sure U.S. workplaces are even safer in the
future.
Compensation for Workplace Accidents
Property owners and managers, equipment manufacturers and
maintenance firms may all be liable. SMBB attorneys work
tenaciously to help you get all the compensation to which you may
be entitled - including compensation for pain and suffering,
emotional trauma, medical costs, lost income and future
earnings.
