I had a workers compensation attorney representing me for 15 years that was completely dragging his feet all the way on my three case's so horribly I finally had to dismiss him from my case's because he couldn't seem to settle them after all those year's gone by. I was then fortunate enough to obtain Eason & Tambornini to represent me on my case's and they were able to settle my case's without any problems what so ever. I would and actually already have recommended Eason & Tambornini to family and friends who need good representation. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Eason & Tambornini and the entire law firms team.Sincerely,Daniel F.

I had the pleasure of working with Eason and Tamborini Law for my father’s car accident case, and I can’t recommend them highly enough. Attorney Seth Bradly is not only incredibly knowledgeable but also truly dedicated to his clients. He took the time to explain every step of the legal process to me, ensuring I felt comfortable and informed throughout. His expertise and attention to detail made a challenging situation much easier to navigate. Prior to hiring Seth we had contacted other law firms in the area and felt as if all they truly cared about was their payout. Seth came highly recommended by a friend who was very pleased with her representation and outcome of her case.A special mention goes to Francesca, Seth's assistant, who was always prompt, professional, and genuinely caring. She kept everything organized and was quick to respond to any questions I had, making the whole experience seamless. Francesca was very helpful throughout the entire process and my family and l can’t thank her enough for always being so kind and understanding.If you’re looking for a law firm that combines expertise with exceptional client service, Eason and Tamborini is the way to go.

I have so many good things to say about Eason and Tamborini! I would highly recommend anyone who would want the best representation to contact them! My experience has been amazing from start to finish. I would like to thank Matt, Kristopher, and especially Kristen. Kristen is an amazing person and truly cares about making sure you feel represented and cared for. There was never a time where I felt my questions weren’t being answered in a timely manner and I really cannot thank the legal team enough. It was a long year and some months, but I am more than satisfied with the outcome and truly feel there would not have been better representation for my case. Do yourself a favor and get represented by people who genuinely care about your well being and the outcome of your case! If I could rate them 10 stars I would!!

Additional Information on Construction Accidents

Don’t Wait to Apply for Workers’ Compensation

Our Sacramento construction accident attorneys will tell you this: If you are injured on a construction site, you must immediately apply for workers’ compensation benefits. From preliminary medical findings to testing, X-rays, surgeries, and ongoing rehabilitation, if necessary, there is no reason to wait and every reason to get going. At every stage of the process, you will be waiting for doctor appointments, test results, etc. It would be best if you had financial support now.

How Construction Accident Cases Differ From Other Personal Injury Cases

Due to the changing physical environment of a construction site, it is critical to hire a construction accident attorney immediately so that investigators can be on the scene to preserve evidence. Weather, construction progress, and other factors can only lose necessary proof. Your best strategy is to contact a reputable and experienced construction accident attorney as soon as you have reported the accident to your employer. Construction accidents usually involve two legal authorities, two separate courts, and two separate evidence obligations: workers’ compensation and superior court for negligence claims.

FAQ: Can one of my Sacramento construction accident attorneys explain how the workers’ compensation system works?

Once you have applied for workers’ compensation benefits and have an Eason & Tambornini lawyer on your side, we will ensure you understand how the process works. Additionally, we will help guide you through the necessary medical treatment, ensure paperwork deadlines are met, and process your temporary disability payments on time so your focus can remain on healing.

When appropriate, our construction accident attorneys will transition the case to the Superior Court, where the ability to recover damages due to your injuries is usually better. Your personal injury attorney will handle both the prosecution of your case and the lien issues, if any, to maximize your recovery.

Our attorneys have strong relationships with leading structured settlement companies, which ensures that any settlement is protected against taxes and creditors.

Filing a Lawsuit Against Your Employer

Filing a lawsuit against your employer for a construction site injury depends on whether negligence can be proven and whether your employer is exempt from a suit under workers’ compensation laws.

Under California law, you typically cannot sue your employer for an accident; your remedy is only workers’ compensation benefits. However, there may be circumstances where the worker’s compensation system allows you to sue your employer for misconduct or extra penalties.

FAQ: If injured in a construction site accident, is your recovery limited to workers’ compensation benefits?

Suppose the person who caused the construction accident was a general contractor, sub-contractor, property owner, or someone other than your employer. In this case, you may have the right to sue for your injuries. This is sometimes called “Third Party Liability,” your construction accident attorney can explain it to you in more detail if they think you have a case. One more reason you should speak with a construction accident attorney as soon as possible following a construction accident is to find out if you have rights beyond a workers’ compensation claim.

The workers’ compensation system forum typically does not provide enough relief to an injured worker but covers many immediate necessities such as medical treatment and temporary disability payments. Although a third-party claim in the Superior Court can take significantly longer, it typically provides a better remedy.

First-Party Claims vs. Third-Party Claims

First-party claims are those made against your insurance carrier or claims against an insurance policy specifically for your benefit, such as workers’ compensation. Your construction accident attorney can provide more detailed information about restrictions or exceptions.

A third-party claim typically refers to a claim or a personal injury lawsuit you file against someone else, such as subcontractors, general contractors, property owners, and equipment manufacturers, in the case of faulty products.

Third-party claims do not have the same limitations as workers’ compensation claims, but you generally must prove negligence in a third-party claim.

Statute of Limitations

One of the main reasons why it is imperative to contact an aggressive and skilled construction accident attorney like ours is because of something called a ‘statute of limitations.’ Simply put, a statute of limitations is the deadline for filing a lawsuit. In California, most negligence lawsuits are required to be filed within a certain amount of time. While exceptions are occasionally made, once the statute of limitations on a case passes (“expires”), the legal claim is no longer valid.

The period during which you can file a lawsuit varies dramatically depending on the type of legal claim. For some of the personal injury claims arising from a construction accident, the statute of limitations expires two years from the date of the injury. For some workers’ compensation benefits, the claim may be as short as one year or five years. Likewise, if a government entity is involved, the period can be as short as 180 days. The bottom line is that the statute of limitations is often the most complex issue and should never be risked. You should contact an attorney immediately to ascertain the time limits for your case’s specific facts.
