Injured in a Workplace Accident? You Likely Have Compensation Options.
On-the-job or job-related injuries and deaths are a serious problem in Texas. Hundreds of people lose their lives or are injured in workplace accidents every year. Employers have a responsibility to maintain safe working environments for their employees. When this responsibility is neglected, employers can often be held liable for the injuries incurred by their employees.
R.J. Holladay is the founder and owner of Holladay Law. As a lawyer with previous experience as an insurance defense attorney, he has an insider’s knowledge of the strategies and tactics opposing counsel takes to limit or deny claims. This helps the firm build stronger cases on behalf of clients. To learn more about how the firm can assist you with your case, call 281-984-3948 to take advantage of a free initial consultation.
How Were You Hurt? Who May Have Been at Fault?
Regardless of a person’s occupation, injuries can and do occur on the job. Whether you are injured as a worker on an offshore oil rig or as a corporate employee, you may be eligible for workers’ compensation benefits or to pursue a type of personal injury lawsuit known as a third-party liability claim. Texas is unique in that it does not require private employers to carry workers’ compensation insurance. If they decline coverage, however, the business can be held personally liable for employee injuries caused by the employer’s negligence.
Holladay Law has handled a wide variety of work-related accident cases for clients, including those involving:
- Oilfield accidents
- Transportation accidents involving trucks and other commercial vehicles
- Fires and explosions
- Construction and industrial accidents
- Repetitive motion injuries
- Slip-and-fall and trip-and-fall accidents
- Dangerous equipment accidents
- Exposure to harmful substances
- Workplace violence due to lack of security
After suffering such injuries, you may be facing extensive recovery and rehabilitation. The firm’s goal will be to get you the compensation you deserve to cover medical bills and other expenses related to your injury. Whenever possible, it will also fight for your right to compensation for your pain and suffering.
