Re: illegal immigrant suing for work related injury
The immigration status of your friend has no bearing on the accident and the lawsuit. He needs to contact an experienced personal injury lawyer. I would suggest Brian Kent at the law firm of Laffey, Bucci and Kent in Philadelphia.
His email address is [email protected]
His phone number is two one five, three nine nine, nine two five five.

Give me a call when you get a chance. Depending on the circumstances of his employment, he may have a cause of action against multiple parties. His status as an illegal alien has no bearing on his ability to bring a personal injury lawsuit as we have represented multiple workers who are aliens who have been injured on the job.
