We all hope to have a decent job that pays the bills so that we can live comfortably. But sometimes, those jobs come with unexpected dangers. Even though we need to work to be able to pay bills, some jobs are not worth the danger that they put you in.

Many people probably don’t associate their work with injury risk, but sometimes people are hurt on the job. You don’t have to work in construction or a profession with a high risk injury to hurt yourself at work. Simple items like loose electrical wires, poorly lit areas, or old, uneven flooring can be the cause of a sprain or broken bone.

The consequences of a workplace injury can prevent you from working, cause painful injuries that take a long time to heal, and accumulate a pile of medical bills. If you’ve had a workplace accident, a West Virginia industrial accident lawyer from DiPiero Simmons McGinley & Bastress, PLLC can help. We understand what you’re going through and will do everything we can to get you the compensation you need.
