Farm Accident Injury

It is established that farming is among the top ten most dangerous occupations in the United States. Part of the reason farming and ranching is so dangerous is that the work often involves the use of heavy equipment and machinery in isolated locations.

In Southwest Florida, farm work includes a range of consumer goods:

  • citrus
  • tomatoes
  • sugar
  • phosphate
  • cattle
  • livestock

Some of the most common types of farming injury including the following:

  • agricultural equipment injury
    • tractor related accident
    • augers
    • combines
    • power drives
    • scrapers
    • hay bailers
    • cherry pickers
    • barn cleaners
    • farm vehicles
    • ATV
    • faulty tools
  • farming equipment that is faulty or not equipped with the proper warnings and safeguards can lead to farmers getting crushed or entangled in the equipment.
    • loss of limb
    • traumatic amputation
    • spinal cord injury
    • head injury
    • traumatic brain injury
  • farm pesticides and other chemical poisoning
    • chemical spills
    • fertilizer burns
    • toxic gas exposure
  • farm animal incidents

Our injury attorneys are generally able to work closely with treating physicians and forensic experts to address all potential aspects of the farm accident case.

There are also liability issues which are investigated to determine which parties may be at fault, and legally responsible, for the farm accident injury, including:

  • power takeoff and safety shutoff malfunction
  • breach of warranty
  • lack of guards, shields and other safety devices
  • improper maintenance or repair
