From construction in the Boston Seaport to warehouse injuries along the Route 128 corridor, injured employees turn to Castel & Hall LLP for help. Our work injury lawyer team explains your rights under Massachusetts workers’ compensation and evaluates any additional personal injury law claims when someone other than your employer contributed to the harm. We serve workers across Framingham, Woburn, Worcester, and Greater Boston.
If a subcontractor, property owner, or equipment manufacturer caused your injury, you may file a civil lawsuit for damages not covered by workers’ comp—like pain and suffering. Construction falls, scaffold failures, forklift collisions, and unsafe machinery frequently implicate product liability or premises negligence. Castel & Hall investigates every angle to maximize recovery for you and your family.
Workers’ comp generally pays for approved medical treatment, a portion of lost wages, and vocational benefits—without proving fault. Insurers still deny or limit claims. We document injuries, coordinate with treating providers, and represent you at DIA proceedings to secure the full benefits you deserve. For serious trauma that alters daily life, we often coordinate with our severe injury team to calculate long-term needs.
Medical treatment, partial wage replacement (temporary total/partial disability), and, for certain permanent losses, schedule-based benefits. Vocational rehab may be available.
You can appeal to the Department of Industrial Accidents (DIA). An attorney can handle conferences, hearings, and medical evidence.
Recoveries from lawsuits may reimburse the comp insurer (lien), but careful negotiation can maximize your net.
Report immediately to your employer and seek care. Formal DIA deadlines and notice rules apply—don’t delay.
If you’ve been injured in a car accident, don’t try to take on the insurance company alone. Castel & Hall LLP is here to help you every step of the way.
