Job Injury Attorney Near Rockville
We Pursue Both Paths After a Rockville Job Injury
A job injury can open two separate legal paths. Workers’ compensation benefits may cover part of the loss. When someone other than the employer caused the accident, a third-party liability claim may provide additional compensation from a negligent driver, subcontractor, vendor, property owner, or manufacturer.
At Antezana & Antezana, LLC., we evaluate both paths and pursue them together when the facts support it. Alfredo J. Antezana founded our family-owned firm in 2001. We offer free consultations, 24/7 availability, and no fees unless we win.
Call (301) 640-5735 to have our job injury attorneys serving Rockville review who caused the accident and which claims may be available.
More Than $70 Million Recovered in 2025
Before establishing our firm, founding partner Alfredo J. Antezana clerked for the Maryland Workers’ Compensation Commission. That experience informs how we coordinate a benefits claim with a separate negligence lawsuit while protecting the distinct requirements of each.
In 2025 alone, we recovered more than $70 million in settlements and verdicts for clients in Maryland and Virginia. Every attorney and staff member is bilingual in English and Spanish, allowing clients to discuss medical treatment, lost wages, and accident evidence in the language they’re most comfortable using.

When a Job Injury Supports a Third-Party Claim
Workers’ compensation generally covers employment-related injuries without requiring proof that the employer was negligent. A separate personal injury lawsuit may also be possible when a person or company outside the employer caused the accident.
The potentially responsible parties depend on how the injury happened:
- Negligent drivers may be liable for collisions involving employees who are driving, making deliveries, directing traffic, or working beside a road.
- General contractors or subcontractors may be responsible for dangerous conditions they created or controlled on a construction site.
- Property owners may face premises liability when an unsafe property condition causes an injury.
- Equipment manufacturers may face product liability when defective machinery or a faulty component causes an accident.
A third-party lawsuit may seek damages that workplace benefits don’t provide, including pain and suffering, full lost wages, reduced earning potential, and compensation for scarring or disfigurement. Our job injury lawyers serving Rockville examine contracts, incident reports, site control, vehicle records, and equipment evidence to identify potentially responsible parties.
Job-Site & Roadway Cases We’ve Handled
Work-related injuries can happen on roads, customer properties, construction sites, and inside emergency vehicles. The circumstances determine whether another person or company may share responsibility.
Our past workplace accident cases include:
- A landscaper struck while mowing a customer’s lawn after a joyriding driver lost control and left the roadway.
- A pipelayer killed in a trench collapse, whose family secured benefits through our representation.
- A carpenter who slipped at a job site and needed extensive time to recover.
- A paramedic who injured their back when the ambulance they were riding in struck a speed bump.
Where to File & When to Act in Maryland
A third-party personal injury lawsuit arising from a workplace accident in the Rockville area is generally filed in the Circuit Court for Montgomery County, which sits in Rockville. The proper court may depend on the parties, the damages claimed, and where the conduct occurred.
Maryland’s general personal injury statute of limitations is three years from the injury date. A workers’ compensation claim generally has a two-year limit, and other notice or filing rules may apply. Waiting for one claim to finish could jeopardize the deadline for another, so both paths should be evaluated promptly.
