Work Related Injuries
Workplace accidents cause thousands of work related injuries every year in Texas. If you have suffered a workplace injury, owing to an accident on the job you may be entitled to compensation for your financial losses. For many accident victims, there may be multiple sources of compensation in addition to workers compensation.
Often, other companies' employees, oil and gas equipment manufacturers, construction equipment manufacturers, and other industrial manufacturers share additional liability for your injuries. If you are injured due to the negligent behavior of a co-worker, a person with a different company or a product, you may also be entitled to monetary benefits as compensation for your pain and suffering. This can be a negligence claim against the employer or an independent claim against the party or parties responsible for your work related injury.
Manufacturers, property owners, and employers have a responsibility to provide reasonable safeguards against industrial and other workplace accidents that occur while you are on the job or using their machinery. Our job is to consider the facts of what happened to cause the accident. We will investigate all facets of your accident to determine all of the insured parties who may be held liable for compensation.
