McLario, Helm & Bertling - Wisconsin Farm Accident Attorneys

If you or a loved one has been seriously injured in an accident involving a hay baler, power auger, corn picker, or other agricultural equipment, contact the Waukesha County farm accident attorneys at McLario, Helm & Bertling in Menomonee Falls. We represent victims of farm machinery accidents, tractor rollovers, pesticide exposure or fertilizer burns, and accidents involving farm vehicles.

Many farm equipment accidents involve severe or disabling injuries, including amputation, spinal cord damage, or traumatic brain injury. Our experienced farming injury lawyers will work closely with your treating physicians and our own forensic experts to make sure that all aspects of your injuries and treatment expenses are presented for compensation. We also can help you recover for such intangible damages as pain and suffering, the trauma of witnessing a spouse or child suffering horrific pain, loss of enjoyment, loss of companionship, and even psychiatric damages.

Among the liability issues we typically consider in farm injury cases are:

• Design defects and manufacturing defects
• Failure to warn of foreseeable hazards
• Removal of shields, guards, and safety devices from farm equipment
• Improper maintenance or repair
• Breach of warranty
• Safety shutoff and power takeoff malfunctions
• Complex corporate relationships involving manufacturer's subsidiaries, independent distributors, and dealers
