Ridgeland, Mississippi, is a pleasant community just north of the capital, where individuals and families who work in Jackson choose to live and raise their families. While generally considered to be a safe community, residents of the area can suffer serious injuries in a vehicle accident, at work, in a slip and fall, or other incident. When a severe injury occurs due to the negligence of another party, it is vital to have the support of a Ridgeland personal injury attorney with a track record of high-value settlements and jury awards.
Highway 51, I-55, Livingston Road, Lake Harbour Drive, Old Canton Road, and several other local arteries are heavily traveled by commuters, locals, and commercial trucks and can be the location of dangerous or deadly car accidents. When a serious, catastrophic, or fatal crash occurs in Ridgeland, innocent drivers and their passengers can face a lifetime of challenges—personal, financial, and emotional. That’s when ‘Maggio Law can help.
Our highways and streets are heavily used by commercial trucks, including semi-trucks, box trucks, delivery trucks, and construction vehicles. When an accident with a large, heavy truck occurs, innocent people can sustain very serious or catastrophic injuries and have an uncertain future. At ‘Maggio Law, we take on these cases with confidence, and we are proud to have recovered many high-value settlements and jury awards for the people we represent and seek justice for families who have lost a loved one.
Ridgeland is a booming community with employment in various industries, including retail, restaurants, bars, sports venues, schools, and construction. When injured on the job, an individual has a right to workers’ compensation benefits—the state program established to protect employees and employers. The benefits are paid to cover the costs of medical treatment and care, and a percentage of the wages lost due to the injuries. The employee sacrifices the right to sue the employer in most cases.
When a third party contributed to the injuries at work, it may be possible to file a claim or lawsuit against the third party to recover far more than the workers’ comp system offers. For a claim that has been denied, delayed, or benefits are paid at a lower rate than the injured individual should receive, it is time to speak with our legal team at ‘Maggio Law. We serve the Ridgeland community in all work-related injury claims and have extensive experience in resolving even the most complex workers’ comp cases.
