Workplace Injury Claims

A workplace injury is not just a medical issue—it is a matter of rights: the rights of the worker, their family, and the obligations of those responsible for ensuring safe working conditions.

Our firm assists Italian and foreign workers injured in all types of work environments—companies, construction sites, domestic and care work—handling the entire compensation process from initial assessment to final resolution.

Scope of assistance

We assist in cases involving:

• Physical injuries of any severity
• Partial or total permanent disability
• Inability to continue work activity
• Death of the worker

We operate both in structured corporate environments and in more informal contexts, where workers’ rights are often less effectively protected.

What We Do

From case analysis to resolution, we provide:

• Immediate assessment of employer or third-party liability
• Management of relationships with INAIL, employers, and insurance companies
• Full evaluation of damages (biological, moral, financial, and loss of earning capacity)
• Pursuit of full compensation, including court action where necessary

If the worker or their family returns to their country of origin, we manage the case from Italy through powers of attorney, ensuring direct communication and clear updates, with language support where needed.

What to Do After a Workplace Injury

The first steps are crucial. It is important to:

1. Seek immediate medical assistance and ensure the injury is officially recorded
2. Notify the employer in writing
3. Keep all medical documentation
4. Contact a lawyer specialized in workplace injuries before signing any agreement with insurers or the employer

Signing an agreement without legal advice may result in an inadequate settlement and prevent further claims.

Why Choose Mignacca Law

Italian law on workplace injuries is complex, involving INAIL, civil law, and sometimes criminal law. Foreign workers, in particular, may not be fully aware of their rights or may accept inadequate solutions due to urgency or uncertainty.

Our firm—experienced in assisting foreign nationals in Italy—provides comprehensive case management, clear communication, and effective legal protection. We are based in Rome and handle cases nationwide.
