- Q. Can an employer be liable for not seeking medical help when I showed signs of a medical emergency?
- A: If you have signs of serious illness, tour employer may have an obligation summon first aid to you under OSHA Reg. 1915.87(c)(2). However, it is unclear that you communicated symptoms of serious illness, so the existence of a duty by your employer is in doubt.
It is also unclear that you suffered any significant injury as a result of your employer's failure to summon first aid. It will argue that you were already having a stroke and that nothing it did or didn't do, changed that. If such injury does exist, i.e, the stroke was made worse by the delay in care, you would have a workers compensation case.
- Q. Concern over settling bodily injury claim after minimal impact in rear-end collision; suspecting fraud and questioning insurance investigation process.
- A: Because it doesn't care about your pride or sense or right and wrong. The insurer makes a decision based on what costs the least amount of money. Also, your estimation of whether anyone could be injured in such a small impact has no value. You don't know whether anyone had a preexisting condition that made them unusually susceptible to injury. You don't know what injuries they are claiming. You don't know what their records say. Just let your insurer do its job. It has an obligation to resolve the claims against you within the limits of the policy you purchased. You should urge, in writing, that it do that.
- Q. eBike brake cable exploded due to design flaw, causing crash. Options for liability lawsuit?
- A: If you are hurt, attorneys can help you with a lawsuit to recover for your past and future medical expenses, wage loss, and pain and suffering. If your injuries are minor, it sounds like you don't need a personal injury attorney, depending on what you mean by "minor."
You might contact a class action attorney about the apparent defect, or you might report an unsafe product with the Consumer Products Safety Commision. cpsc.gov/Safety-Education/Safety-Education-Centers/Micromobility-Information-Center
