Work Accident Lawyers: Protect Your Rights, Both as a Company and as a Worker

A workplace accident has serious consequences for both worker and company. We offer full representation to both sides: to the company, to comply with regulations and minimise claims; to the worker, to defend their rights and obtain fair compensation.

A workplace accident can have serious consequences, both for the affected worker and for the company. At Nextica Law, we understand the challenges faced by both sides: the worker, who needs to defend their rights and obtain fair compensation, and the company, which seeks to comply with regulations and minimize the risks of claims or penalties. Our workplace accident attorneys offer you comprehensive and personalized representation so that, no matter your position, you have the necessary legal support to face the situation effectively.

THE ACCIDENT IS JUDGED BY WHAT WAS DONE BEFORE

After a workplace accident, everything the company did or failed to do in prevention is examined under a magnifying glass, retroactively. The four fronts that open at once:

The surcharge nobody insures

if safety measures were breached, benefits are increased by 30 to 50 percent directly payable by the employer — and that surcharge cannot be insured.

art. 164 of the consolidated General Social Security Law

The duty of protection cannot be outsourced

hiring an external prevention service does not transfer the responsibility to effectively protect the workforce.

art. 14 of Law 31/1995 on Occupational Risk Prevention

An accident without an internal investigation

harm to health obliges the company to investigate its causes, and that investigation is also the company's defence in every proceeding that follows.

art. 16.3 of Law 31/1995 on Occupational Risk Prevention

When the file turns criminal

seriously endangering workers' life or health by breaching prevention rules is a criminal offence, with individually named responsible persons.

arts. 316 to 318 of the Criminal Code

What's worth knowing

For the company: avoid costs and penalties, and minimise impact

For the worker: we claim the compensation you are owed
