Brady, TX Personal Injury Law Firms & Lawyers

ou need to consult a workers' compensation attorney. Generally speaking, an injury at work is only compensable through workers' compensation. Your employer must be put on notice of the injury within a specified period. Most workers' compensation claims must be made within two years of the date of the injury.

Indiana law requires a store owner to keep the store in a reasonably safe condition for shoppers. If the wet floor was caused by mopping, the store owner should warn customers. If another customer spilled something, the store owner has to have some kind of notice of the spill or failed to reasonably inspect the store to check for spills. Under such circumstances, the store is responsible for your wife's injuries.

If you can show that your sister's wrongdoing or negligence was the cause of your son's broken leg, then yes. With the information you provided, it doesn't sound like you know how your son's leg was broken. A child can fall, for example, with a parent standing right there. It doesn't mean the parent did anything wrong. Arguably your sister should have contacted you immediately, but waiting a few hours did not necessarily cause any additional injury to your son. You would need to show either 1) your sister caused the broken leg injury or 2) her doing nothing about the leg for a few hours caused additional injury to him.
