With the highest rating from Martindale-Hubble, Kathy Love is an attorney based in Albuquerque, New Mexico. A partner at McGinn, Carpenter, Montoya & Love, Kathleen “Kathy” Love is involved in representing employees injured at work. Work-related injuries occur while an employee is performing his duties at work or on behalf of his or her employer. In light of these injuries, employers in most states are required by law to have workers’ compensation insurance. This insurance cover is drawn to cover injured workers for lost wages and other specific accommodations. However, there are certain instances in which employees can bring individual lawsuits after being injured. For example, should an employee be injured by a faulty product, a product that was inherently dangerous, or a product that was toxic, he or she can sue the product’s manufacturer. If the employee was injured because of the negligent conduct of the employer, he or she can bring forth a personal injury suit against the employer. If the employer does not have work compensation insurance, an employee may opt to sue the employer or receive compensation from a state’s funds.
