How Hamburg Farm Accidents Happen
Farm accidents can happen due to negligence, defective manufacturing, inadequate training, lack of proper safety equipment and countless other causes. Some of the most common include:
- Heavy equipment and machinery accidents
- Tractor accidents, including tip-overs and collisions with cars
- Livestock accidents, including getting kicked or trampled by horses or cattle
- Heat stroke
- Falls from ladders, roofs or other heights
- Exposure to toxic chemicals and pesticides

Depending on the nature of the accident, you may have multiple avenues for financial recovery.
