Sean Olson

Personal Injury Attorney

I became a personal injury lawyer to ensure that each individual has someone to look out for them, even when no one else will. I wanted my neighbors to know that they have someone willing to stand by their side and fight with them to make sure that when they are hurt as a result of someone else’s negligence, there is someone there who will make it right. That’s why I do what I do.

Common Causes of Industrial Accidents in Wyoming

Many things can go wrong in any given work environment. This is true to an even greater extent in industrial facilities or construction sites, which contain various safety hazards. Some prominent types of workplace accidents in Wyoming include:

  • Slip and falls: A hazard as simple as some spilled liquid can cause serious injuries if ignored.
  • Heavy machinery accidents: Two Wyoming workers were killed in 2023 after being run over by trucks they were working on. Any type of heavy equipment can cause fatal injuries in the right circumstances.
  • Electrical accidents: If equipment is not properly grounded, shielded, or wired, the resulting shocks can injure or even kill an unfortunate worker.
  • Toxic chemical exposure: Employers must exercise extreme caution when having employees handle toxic chemicals.
  • Fire and explosions: An exploding tank car killed two Wyoming workers in 2021.

Our experienced Wyoming workplace accident lawyers can investigate what led to your accident, discover who was responsible, and hold all negligent parties accountable.

A serious injury can impact your health, work, and future. We’re here to hold the responsible party accountable and get you the compensation you deserve.

How Long Do I Have To File a Workplace Accident Lawsuit in Wyoming?

The statute of limitations for most personal injury claims in Wyoming is four years after the date of the accident. While that might seem like a generous timeline, it’s important to get started as soon as possible to collect evidence at its strongest and give your lawyer time to build the best possible case. Missing the deadline could make you lose out on your opportunity to recover compensation.

What Compensation Can I Receive After a Workplace Accident in WY?

You can receive both economic and non-economic damages after getting hurt in a workplace accident in Wyoming, depending on the extent of your injuries.

Economic damages are for financial losses with a specific price tag, such as lost income, medical bills, loss of earning capacity, and future care expenses. Non-economic damages compensate for intangible losses like pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

The amount of compensation available to you can vary greatly based on the circumstances of your accident. Consulting with a knowledgeable Wyoming work-related injury lawyer can help you understand the potential value of your claim and weigh your legal options.
