Brain Injury Representation for Erie Workers
Erie's economy is built on manufacturing, healthcare, plastics, and tourism, with trauma care at UPMC Hamot and Saint Vincent Hospital. Factory and plant workers, warehouse employees, and tradespeople across Erie County face traumatic brain injury risks from machinery accidents, falls, and struck-by incidents.
An Erie worker hurt on the job may have two claims: a Pennsylvania workers' compensation claim for medical care and wage loss regardless of fault, and a third-party personal injury claim when a defective machine, contractor, or property owner caused the brain injury. Michael Cardamone, a Certified Workers' Compensation Specialist, handles the workers' comp claim and coordinates any third-party claim with our Personal Injury colleagues to maximize recovery.
