How We Handle Tool Injury Cases
Most tool injuries involve amputations, severe lacerations, the loss of an eye, or head and neck injuries. In each instance, costs associated with medical treatment, surgery, medication, and lost wages must be taken into account.
At GoldenbergLaw, PLLC, our defective tool injury lawyers on our Minneapolis team work with medical economists who provide thorough, accurate cost analyses of our client’s injuries. We also take into account pain and suffering, as well as long-term disability when a tool-related accident results in someone’s being unable to perform certain tasks.
Quick Facts
Where Most Tool Injuries Occur
Most tool injuries occur when people are on the job. Workers’ compensation benefits do not cover pain, suffering, disability, scarring, or emotional damages. That is why it’s important to have the case reviewed by an experienced product liability attorney, not just your workers’ compensation attorney. We are also able to help if you were injured at home.
Tool-Related Injuries
The CPSC estimates that 900,000 people are injured each year using power tools. These tools are designed to cut, puncture, shred, slice, and sand metals, fiberglass, and woods. If a power tool makes contact with a person, bad outcomes like the following can occur:
- Electrocutions
- Burns
- Amputations
- Surgeries
Manufacturer's Liability
The manufacturer of a power tool must identify and prevent hazards through design, guarding, and warnings. We have worked on thousands of product liability cases and we will help you understand your options and rights.
