Forklift Accident Attorney in Tacoma
Over 100 Years of Combined Experience for Injured Tacoma Workers
A serious forklift accident can leave you facing medical bills, missed wages, and questions about workers’ compensation. When you need a forklift accident attorney in Tacoma, our team can review how the incident happened, what workplace benefits may apply, and whether another party may share responsibility. At Becker Franklin Rovang, we represent injured clients in Tacoma and throughout Washington.
A forklift injury can involve more than a workers’ compensation claim. The facts may point to an equipment owner, contractor, maintenance company, property owner, manufacturer, or another outside party. Your legal options depend on the employment relationships involved, the equipment, the available records, and who contributed to the incident.
Contact our Tacoma forklift accident lawyer at (360) 800-3009 today to schedule a free consultation.

I am very Lucky to have found Ian De Verna for my attorney. I was injured in a car accident and while Ian was working on my case I was hit by someone again. This time the person had no insurance I was injured again and my brand new car was totaled. Being injured again I was pretty scared but thankfully Ian took on this case for uninsured motorist against my insurance company as well. It was a challenge I am sure but Ian and his staff were very professional and caring the whole time. With all Ian's hard work he was able to get policy limits for both cases. Ian is not only good at his profession but truly cares about his clients and works very hard with his great group of people at Becker Franklin Rovang Injury office
