If you’ve been hurt in a forklift or machinery accident at work, Kearney Law can help you secure compensation with no upfront costs.
A forklift and machinery accident claim is a type of workplace injury claim made when you’re harmed by unsafe machinery, faulty equipment, or poor training at work.
Forklifts, factory machines, and heavy equipment are common in warehouses, construction sites, and factories across Newbridge. Employers are legally required to ensure machines are well maintained, provide proper safety training, and reduce risks. If these responsibilities are ignored and you’re injured as a result, you may be entitled to compensation.
