Machinery Accidents
Every year in the United States, thousands of workers suffer serious injuries from machinery accidents. Industrial machinery has moving parts that pose a hazard to workers if all safety regulations are not followed. Serious injury results from moving machine parts, including amputations, severe burns, crushed or broken limbs, head injuries, electrocution, spinal cord injuries, eye injuries, and even death. Each day approximately 16 people will die in the U.S. as a result of a work-related accident; some of those deaths will be due to faulty equipment and inadequately guarded machinery.

Catastrophic machinery accidents happen far too often in California. There are State and Federal regulations, as well as industry standards that require corporations and plant supervisors to implement a wide range of safety procedures. Even so, accidents still happen when corners are cut and the proper precautions are not taken to ensure that machines are effectively guarded and equipment is properly maintained and repaired.
Some of the machine safety concerns include:
- Defective cabling
- Defective machine parts in or improper set up of industrial assembly line machines
- Insufficient safety protocols with mobile machinery
- Improperly maintained machinery
- Unguarded or inadequately guarded machinery
- Lack of proper training
Those injured, and the families of those fatally injured, in machinery accidents will be entitled to Workers' Compensation benefits; unfortunately, they are typically not enough to cover all the losses associated with these types of injuries. We may be able to help you obtain a compensation package that includes damages for your injuries, as well as pain and suffering and loss of quality of life. Our goal and commitment is to assist you in obtaining the maximum compensation possible and holding the negligent parties liable for your injuries.
