Workers’ compensation covers on the job injuries regardless of fault but generally excludes compensation for pain and suffering and many long term damages.

Pain and suffering are typically addressed as part of non economic damages in a personal injury claim or settlement. Your attorney can help quantify and present these losses to achieve fair compensation.
If the other party has little or no insurance, your attorney will explore all potential sources of recovery, including underinsured or uninsured motorist coverage, assets of liable parties, or consumer protection claims where applicable.
