I lost my fingertip at work is there any legal remedy for me?

Yes. You can file a workers compensation claim. You will be entitled to something based on your permanent impairment to your finger. It likely will not be much, be certainly better than nothing.

This sounds like a workers compensation claim.

Yes. You should be entitled to workers comp benefits.

Very small workers comp case. File your claim.

This is a worker comp case. your bills should be paid and should should get a very very small lump sum for the permanent loss of the finger tip. But the payment will be so small you wont even notice it.

File a work mans comp claim.

Yes. Get your Dr to give you a disability rating. I don't know which finger you lost, but the comp law has a list of body parts and the number of weeks you are entitled to get comp for the total loss of that body part. The comp carrier will take the percentage the Dr gives you times the number of weeks allowed for the loss of whichever finger and that will tell them how many weeks you are entitled to comp. You may also have a claim against the manufacturer of the cell for your injury. We call that a potential products liability claim. If you have one, it typically will get you more money than the comp. If you are able to recover anything, your comp carrier will be entitled to get the money it paid out back. If you decide to consult a lawyer, consult one familiar with Alabama accident and comp law. Good luck.

Worker's comp covers medical expenses and time out of work. You cannot sue your employer for negligence and damages for "pain and suffering" is not available. If you have a permanent injury, you may be able to get a "schedule award" which is based on a formula depending on the extent of your disability and your rate of pay, offset by payments that you have already received. Whether or not your fingertip qualifies as a permanent partial disability depends on how much of it was lost and whether it hinders your work. There are other considerations as well, such as whether you are a public or private employee. If you are a member of a union, contact your union rep to see what you are entitled to. That may include ADD insurance and/or prepaid legal fees for your comp lawyer.
