Industrial injuries often threaten the life and livlihood of the worker. We at Spohrer Wilner are extremely
concerned about workplace hazards, including toxic hazards, hazards from machine injuries, electrical hazards,
noise hazards and other problems.

Workers’ compensation may not be the sole source of compensation. Investigation often reveals that a
manufacturer or supplier has acted negligently and cannot claim immunity under workers compensation law. For
this reason all industrial accidents must be investigated.

Special circumstances

Machine guard failure

Home made machine guards are often removed or are inadequate. Serious injury may result from improper
guarding. In cases where a guard is inadequate, the machine designer may be at fault for failing to provide a
correct guard. Thorough investigation should be undertaken in any case of machine injury.

Industrial toxins

Various industrial pollutants can cause injury to the workforce. Spohrer Wilner has investigated cases of
industrial toxin injury, including electrocution, inhalation toxins, repetitive stress injuries, and other
sources of injuries. Persons injured by industrial toxins should seek a comprehensive investigations.
