Between this past April when we had our last snowfall and today, a
lot of people forgot how to drive in Minnesota winters. With only a few
inches of snow this evening, our roads were littered with banged up
cars and injured drivers and passengers. Unfortunately there were 3 car
accident related fatalities today around the state of Minnesota related
to the the weather. Many of these accidents involved people performing
duties on behalf of their employer and are therefore entitled to
Minnesota workers compensation benefits.
Aside from
urging everyone to slow down and be more attentive while driving, I also
want to remind you that if you were in ANY WAY performing duties or
activity on behalf of your employer, your auto accident may be work
related. Were you driving from your office to a meeting? Were you
running an errand for your company or boss? Were you driving between
job sites? Were you working out of state on a temporary job
assignment? If your answer was "YES" to any of these questions, you may
be entitled to unlimited medical coverage, wage replacement benefits,
college retraining benefits, and monetary damages for your permanent
injury from Minnesota workers compensation system. Don't assume that
your employer or supervisor will advise you of the same. In a FREE,
short conversation with the attorneys of Atkinson Law Office and
Minnesota Disability, we can advise you whether you have a work related
injury.
We represent clients throughout Minnesota and
across the United States who have sustained injuries while driving on Minnesota
roads or while traveling outside of Minnesota for their Minnesota
employer. Call the attorneys and staff of Atkinson Law Office
and Minnesota Disability today to discuss your car accident. We can
