Farm Accident Injury Lawyers, WI
Agriculture is one of Wisconsin’s most important industries, supporting thousands of workers across dairy farms, crop operations, livestock facilities, and agricultural businesses. But farm work also comes with serious risks. Heavy machinery, grain bins, livestock, chemicals, and unsafe property conditions can all lead to devastating injuries when safety standards are ignored.
Farm work involves dangerous equipment and hazardous conditions.
Workers’ compensation may not cover all losses after a farm accident.
You may have a legal claim against equipment manufacturers, negligent contractors, utility companies, or other liable third parties

Common Types of Farm Accident Injury Cases in Wisconsin
Farmers and agricultural workers across Wisconsin rely on tractors, combines, augers, balers, grain handling equipment, and other heavy farm machinery every single day. When farm machinery is defectively designed, improperly manufactured, or negligently maintained, catastrophic injuries can and do occur.
Our Wisconsin farm accident attorneys handle product liability claims involving:
Tractor rollover accidents
PTO shaft entanglement injuries
Defective or missing safety guards
Hydraulic system and brake failures
Farm equipment fires and explosions
Defective auger and baler machinery
Manufacturers, distributors, dealers, and maintenance providers may all share legal responsibility for defective farm equipment injuries. You may have a strong product liability claim even if you were partially at fault.
Grain Bin & Contractor Negligence
Grain bins and grain storage facilities can become deadly when proper agricultural safety precautions are ignored or bypassed. Wisconsin farm workers may suffer suffocation, grain engulfment, serious falls, or toxic chemical exposure inside grain storage systems and silos. In many cases, outside contractors or grain facility operators fail to follow established OSHA safety standards.
Common Wisconsin grain bin accident injury cases include:
- Grain engulfment and entrapment accidents
- Unsafe or inadequate ventilation systems
- Improper lockout/tagout procedure violations
- Falls from grain storage structures and bins
- Negligent contractor supervision and safety violations
- Grain auger and conveyor entanglement injuries
If you or a family member suffered injuries in a grain bin accident caused by contractor negligence or unsafe facility conditions, Nowlan Injury Law can help you pursue full compensation.
Farm Equipment Roadway Accidents
Farm equipment including tractors, combines, grain wagons, and agricultural trailers frequently shares Wisconsin’s rural roads and highways with passenger vehicles. Poor visibility, inadequate lighting, improper signage, or negligent driving can lead to severe and fatal roadway collisions.
Wisconsin farm equipment roadway accident cases may involve:
Rear-end collisions with slow-moving farm equipment
Improperly marked or unlit agricultural vehicles
Unsafe towing and trailer practices
Negligent farm vehicle operator driving
Mechanical farm equipment failures on public roads
Failure to yield or signal when turning
Both farm workers and passenger vehicle occupants injured in these collisions may have strong personal injury claims against negligent parties.
Electrical Negligence on Farms
Overhead power lines, faulty agricultural electrical systems, and improperly maintained utility infrastructure create serious and life-threatening risks on Wisconsin farms and agricultural properties. Electrocution accidents involving farm workers can result in catastrophic permanent injuries or wrongful death.
Wisconsin farm electrical negligence cases often involve:
Contact with overhead power lines during farm operations
Defective or improperly installed electrical farm equipment
Faulty and dangerous wiring in agricultural barns and buildings
Utility company negligence and failure to maintain safe infrastructure
Electrical fires and explosions in farm facilities
Grain dryer and grain handling equipment electrical failures
Utility companies and electrical contractors can be held liable when their negligence causes farm electrocution accidents and injuries.
What To Do After a Farm Accident Injury in Wisconsin
If you’ve been seriously injured in a Wisconsin farm accident, taking the right steps immediately can protect both your health and the strength of your legal claim.
Report the Farm Accident Immediately
Notify the farm owner, supervisor, or property manager right away and ensure the accident and your injuries are formally documented in writing.
Seek Medical Treatment Right Away
Get medical attention as soon as possible after your farm accident, even if your symptoms initially appear minor. Medical records are critically important evidence in proving the nature and extent of your injuries.
Preserve All Available Evidence
Take photographs and video of the accident scene, all farm equipment involved, your visible injuries, and any unsafe conditions that contributed to the accident.
Do Not Speak With Insurance Adjusters Alone
Insurance companies representing farm owners, equipment manufacturers, or contractors may attempt to minimize your injury claim or pressure you into accepting a quick, inadequate settlement. Never provide recorded statements or sign any documents.
