Claim it before someone else doesPiedmont is a small, tight-knit Alameda County community of about 11,376 residents, but workplace injuries here look much like anywhere else — falls at a job site, equipment accidents, or injuries tied to vehicles operating near corridors like Oakland Avenue or Hampton Road. In California, workers' compensation is typically the exclusive remedy against your employer, meaning you generally can't sue your employer directly even if they were careless. However, when someone other than your employer contributed to your injury — a subcontractor, a property owner, a manufacturer of faulty equipment, or another driver — you may have a separate claim against that third party. LawProactive doesn't practice law; we're a free service that connects injured workers in Piedmont with an independent attorney who can look at both the workers' comp side and any possible third-party claim, so nothing gets missed. There's no fee unless your case results in a recovery.
Even though workers' comp is usually the only path against your employer, a negligent third party — like a subcontractor or equipment maker — can still be held separately accountable.
California generally requires you to report a workplace injury to your employer within 30 days, and a third-party injury claim carries its own 2-year deadline — an attorney can help make sure neither is missed.
