The workplace is one of the most dangerous places to be. According to government statistics, thousands of people suffered a serious injury at a Florida jobsite, and over 200 died. These workers are in so much pain that many of them miss weeks and possibly months of work—putting financial stress on their families.
Hersh Kirtman helps injured workers get the compensation they are entitled to following an accident. We hear from many men and women who express frustration at the slow pace of their workers’ compensation claims and wonder if they are entitled to additional compensation. Speak with one of our lawyers today.
Virtually every employer in the state must carry workers’ compensation insurance. This system was created to streamline the process for injured workers to get their medical bills paid and replace lost wages.

At Hersh Kirtman Injury Law, we turn adversity into justice through trust and relentless advocacy. With decades of experience, we don’t just handle cases—we redefine outcomes. Your recovery starts with a conversation. Call us today for a free, no-obligation consultation—because you deserve a team that fights as hard as you do.
Many workers ask whether they can sue their employer for their injuries. For example, your employer might have been lax about enforcing safety regulations, which is the direct cause of your injuries. Can you sue them for this negligence?
The general answer is “no.” Workers’ compensation replaces the old tort system based on fault. So the workers’ comp benefits are all you will receive from your employer.
However, you might have a third-party claim if you were injured by a customer or a defective product. In these situations, you bring a claim against the other entity for all your losses, including pain and suffering. At Hersh Kirtman, we review every case to determine whether our clients can maintain this type of third-party claim against a non-employer.
After a workplace injury, you need professional legal representation. You owe it to yourself to call Hersh Kirtman today to speak with a member of our legal team in a free consultation.
