I slipt and fell on my knee at work. As a result, my knee is bruised. Is there anything I can do (LAwsuit wise)?

A worker compensation claim my be in order depending on how serious it is.

If a bruise and swelling is all you have then there are really no monetary damages to reimburse you about.
If things get worse so that you have medical bills for structural injury to your knee, that is more likely to give rise to monetary damages to reimburse you about.

Good luck to you.

Because you were injured at work your recourse is through workers compensation, unless a third party (somone who is not your employer) in some way caused your accident, i.e. a machine you were working with was defective and caused you injury. Then you might have a potential civil claim against the manufacturer of the machine.

It sounds like your injury was not serious and that you suffered no damages, except a little pain and suffering. Unless you tore something or broke something you probably have no recourse through workers compensation.
