INDUSTRIAL INJURIES

industrial injuries in texas & louisiana

As recent news stories have demonstrated, working at a refinery or other industrial facility can be dangerous. We have helped hundreds of individuals and families whose lives were impacted by an industrial injury. Our attorneys have experience pushing these cases to trial, and have successfully represented industrial workers throughout the state, and our results in this area speak for themselves.

Industrial jobs pose a higher risk of serious injury or death than other jobs. People who work in and around the following facilities face significant danger on the job every day:

• Refineries
• Warehouses
• Construction sites
• Drilling rigs
• Fabrication plants
• Assembly plants
• Packaging and distribution plants

However, just because a particular occupation is more dangerous than others does not mean that industrial companies can avoid their legal duty to provide a safe work environment for those people working in or around their facilities. This duty includes providing adequate and appropriate equipment, training, and work site facilities.

COMMON INDUSTRIAL ACCIDENTS

While there is a broad range of accidents that can happen in industrial settings, there are a few common categories that we often see at our firm:

• Fires and explosions
• Chemical exposure and burns
• Heavy machinery and automated machinery accidents
• Falls
• Scaffolding accidents

We see our mission as helping victims of industrial injury and their families every step of the way, including assisting them with their workers compensation and disability claims, as well as aggressively pursuing litigation against the responsible industrial defendants.



As well as prosecuting our industrial injury cases aggressively, our industrial injury trial attorneys also thoroughly investigate and work up our clients’ cases for trial. So, by the time we’re sitting across the negotiating table from an industrial defendant and its lawyers, we are fully prepared to fight the case out before a jury, judge, or arbitration panel.
