While there are many industries in North Dakota, some seek a career in farming. Whether it is your family’s farm, or you work for a company farm, the reality is that it is a dangerous industry. This is true no matter the type of farming, as all require heavy machinery to operate.
While training and proper safety protocols are put in place, this will not always prevent injuries or harm from occurring. If machinery malfunctions or negligence occurs, this could result in a serious and unexpected accident. Thus, those harmed in a farm accident should take the time to understand how the incident occurred, who is liable for the harm suffered and what legal options are available to you.
Farming accidents
At Solberg Stewart Miller, our law firm understands the importance of the farming industry in the state; however, they are also aware of the risks it poses to residents in North Dakota. Our attorneys have years of experience helping our clients understand their rights and help them successfully navigate a personal injury action.
Just because a farming job comes with the risk of getting dirty and doing tough work does not mean that suffering an injury should be overlooked. Whether it is related to negligence, improper training or improperly maintained equipment, a farm accident could result in significant injuries.
Personal injury action
A personal injury action might be a common civil suit, but it can be complex and challenging to navigate. Thus, it is important to understand your rights and how to hold a negligent party accountable. A personal injury action not only seeks to prove liability through evidence surrounding the incident, but it also helps with the recovery of compensation.
If you are unsure about the process or what steps you should take, a legal professional can help answer these and other questions you might have. This can help ensure that your rights and interests are protected.
