Oil and Gas Field Injuries
Dallas Oilfield Accident Attorney
Fort Worth Work Injury Lawyer
An injured worker is usually covered by workers' comp, but Texas law does not require employers to carry workers' compensation insurance on their employees. That means that if you or a family member has been injured in a pipeline explosion, an oil truck accident, or from defective equipment, you may have to fight to get money damages.
However, you also may have more options that just a workers' comp claim. If your injuries were caused by the negligence of subcontractors or another work crew on the site, you may be able to bring a third-party injury claim. It's vitally important that you work with a lawyer who understands your options for financial recovery.

We have the experience and knowledge you can rely on to thoroughly investigate the cause of your oilfield or gas line accident and hold the responsible parties liable for full damages.
Many of the oilfield and gas line explosions we've handled involve high-pressure lines in which equipment failed and gave way, or a component of the line was improperly designed and could not hold the pressure of the line. If there is an oil or natural gas leak, any nearby spark will set off a flash fire. Workers can also be injured when parts blow off a line and hit an employee.
When equipment failure causes the leak or explosion, the manufacturer can be held accountable. If the problem was improper installation of the part or poor maintenance, then the installer or service company can be held responsible.
