        Chute Naperville Personal Injury Lawyers 5 Stars 01 AMAZING! I highly recommend this group. We had quite an unusual case, this group was our only glimmer of hope when our options were limited and no one would accept a complicated case. We worked closely with Colin O’Malley and his team. Words cannot do justice to how wonderful they are; highly competent, professional, very responsive, thorough and friendly. Colin went above and beyond to make himself available and to answer all our questions and concerns. If you need an excellent proficient injury lawyer that would fight for you, look no further!

        Mike took care of my case and I’m thankful for all of the help, time, and effort he put forth for me. Any time I had questions, Mike was always there to answer and then answer them again if I needed further clarification. Nobody really wants to be put in this position and dealing with a process like mine, but if you absolutely have to, go with him.

        Have you been hurt at work and have questions about suing a co-worker for your injuries? Check out this video, then call our lawyers in Naperville.


        Question:

        Can I Sue my Employer or Coworker for Causing my Injury or Illness?

        Answer:

        We often get called from clients, potential clients, who want to talk about what happened at work. It often surrounds a case where they feel that there were unsafe conditions that caused their injury. They feel like their employer is responsible not just for paying Workers’ Comp benefits. They want to know is there anything we can do. Unfortunately for us, or fortunately depending on how you look at it, one of the trade-offs that the Workers’ Compensation Act and statute made over 100 years ago was to remove liability and make it a no-fault statute. What we also did at the same time was made workers’ comp the exclusive remedy for any injuries that occur on the job site. Your employer, your co-worker who’s considered an agent, they have no liability for a work-related injury. There are a few extreme exceptions. Those include when an employer or a co-worker is guilty of an intentional tort against you. One case that we represented involved a young lady who was actually raped by her employer. That is such egregious conduct that it removes it from the protections of the Workers’ Compensation Act and we were able to proceed on that claim notwithstanding the other provisions.
