Legal Question in Personal Injury in Pennsylvania

Company Responsibility

My wife was injured at work, we have been going through Workman's Compensation. There is a third party company involved and maybe even a fourth company. The manufacturer and shipper of the goods that caused my wifes illness. My wife's emplyer will not tell anyone the names of those companies. We never get a straight answer if they can or cannot, and we would like to know if they are allowed to do that.

No. They have an obligation to provide you with the name of the company or person resonsible for your wife's injury. Sometimes it takes a letter from a lawyer or even a court order to obtain this information. If you need help, feel free to
