Injured in a Crash while Driving for Work? You May Have 2 Claims on Your Hands.

Most people know that when they get hurt while they’re on the job, they may be eligible to receive workers’ compensation benefits to replace their paychecks while they recover. And most people also know that those who are injured in auto accidents can file compensation claims against the drivers who hit them to get money for their accident-related expenses.

But many people don’t know that those types of compensation can be combined when the situation calls for it—namely, when someone else causes a crash while driving a work-related vehicle or while driving on company time. In Tennessee, it’s possible to pursue both a workers’ compensation claim and a personal injury claim for the same crash, but doing so requires an experienced law firm and a resourceful lawyer.

At Ponce Law, we handle both types of claims, and we know what it takes to help victims get the money they deserve in these unique situations. We won’t let your employer or the other driver’s insurance company dissuade you from moving forward, and we’ll do everything in our power to get you every penny you deserve.

Contact our Nashville auto accident attorneys today for a free consultation. Evidence can quickly appear, and it’s vital for both personal injury and workers’ compensation claims, so don’t delay. Call today.
