Machine Injuries

Attorneys Serving Gary, Crown Point, Hammond, Valparaiso, Lake County, and Porter County

Many workers using heavy equipment in the United States suffer personal injuries from accidents caused through the use of defective or improperly maintained machinery in the workplace.  Employers are required to have regular safety updates and training of their personnel involved in handling heavy machinery.

Most industrial, construction and factory work sites are governed by OSHA regulations, which have strict guidelines for each type of work environment.  Extensive training and maintenance logs for the types of machines they have on the premises are required as well.   

If you or a loved one has been involved in an accident involving machinery in the workplace, it is important to contact a Northwest Indiana personal injury attorney to safeguard your right to appropriate compensation.

The legal team at Sarkisian Law Offices has professional investigators who will thoroughly investigate accidents that involve heavy equipment and machines, including exposed moving machine parts, OSHA violations, poorly maintained equipment, and malfunctioning machine parts. If necessary, we will work with engineers and safety experts to determine if there was negligence on the part of a particular party.  We can also investigate machine and equipment defects that result in serious injuries to our clients.

If you or a loved one has been injured in a machine-related accident at your work place or factory site, you may not be provided with the medical treatment and compensation you deserve for your injuries.  Some of the various types of machine injuries could be caused by forklifts, cranes, presses, saws, furnaces, lasers, grinders, mixers, back hoes, drill presses and numerous other types of machinery.  Resulting injuries could result in loss of limbs, back injuries, head injuries, brain/spinal cord injuries, fractures, puncture wounds or burns.  Many of these types of injuries are severe and can affect your livelihood and well-being for the rest of your life.
