Based on the information you have provided, it would appear that he could pursue the other party for personal injuries, as well as workers compensation from the Depaprtment. I offer free consultations, and have been an FOP attorney. I offer a discounted contingency fee.

Someone working on the job typically cannot sue their EMPLOYER for being hurt on the job. However, they can sue other third parties who have hurt them. Definitely give our offices a call--especially BEFORE the insurance adjuster reaches out to the precinct. Give our offices a call at my direct line: 267.639.3105.
