With other general negligence claims, proving fault is often required to fulfill the victim’s settlement compensation, however, for those who’ve suffered an injury while on the job, the affected individual is able to receive their worker’s compensation payments and their medical bills paid regardless of who was at fault for the injury or how it was caused.
If you or a loved one have been injured on a workplace setting in the state of Texas, you or your family member could be eligible to be covered by worker’s compensation. Worker’s Comp was developed to reimburse and take care of injured employees, even if they were at fault for causing the harm. In other words, the employee is to receive compensation for their disability and medical care in the case that they are injured on the job, regardless of their role in the accident, even if the injury occurred entirely due to the employee’s own fault.
In Texas, worker’s compensations laws can be found under the Texas Worker’s Compensation Act, Title 5, Texas Labor Code, Chapters 401-506.

After being involved in an automobile accident, the sheer force of the impact can cause damage or injury to the body, primarily to the structures surrounding the spine. Whiplash is a common result of an auto collision, affecting the bones, muscles, tendons, ligaments and other tissues around it, causing symptoms such as head pain. Headaches are a common symptom after an automobile accident, which may require immediate medical attention to determine its source and follow through with treatment.
