If driving is all or part of your job, then you must handle any work vehicle accidents with care.

Do You Drive For Your Job?

- Taxi drivers
- Rideshare drivers
Whether you drive a commercial vehicle or your own vehicle for work, you may be eligible for workers’ compensation and other financial damages after an accident.
What Compensation Is Available?
Workers’ compensation benefits include all your medical expenses related to the accident, a portion of your lost wages and, when necessary, vocational rehabilitation. These are important benefits, but they may not be enough to cover all your losses from the work vehicle accident.
If a negligent third party, such as another driver, bears responsibility for the accident, you may be able to file a personal injury suit for additional financial compensation, including pain and suffering, which is not included in workers’ compensation benefits. This is especially crucial in cases involving serious or permanent injuries or wrongful death.
