Given the location of Welch & Webb as well as the rural upbringing and interests of its attorneys, Jeremy L. Webb and Jared P. Welch, farm-related and hunting accidents are familiar territory. Farms and farmers provide a valuable service to our community as do hunters. However, these agricultural workplaces and recreational activities can be very dangerous. From farm vehicle accidents to employee negligence, there are several risks present in the farming environment.

Hunting also can present serious injuries to even the most experienced hunter. While one of the most common cause of hunting-related injuries are tree-stand accidents, firearm incidents pose a real threat to hunters as well. Most of these accidents result from someone’s negligence, and may include an inexperienced or inadequately trained hunter, a hunter not wearing proper safety gear, discharging a firearm while under the influence of alcohol, and accidental discharges of weapons. The attorneys at Welch & Webb have the knowledge and skill to advocate for victims injured in farm-related and hunting accidents.
