Workplace Accident Lawyers in Dallas

Serving Clients Throughout Texas

Many people in the United States work jobs that come with inherent dangers, such as in the construction and manufacturing industries. Some of the most dangerous jobs that Americans hold are in industrial manufacturing, transportation, and mining. However, all jobs come with the potential for injury. This is why the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) implements workplace safety regulations. But even with these safety protocols in place, workplace accidents and injuries happen every single day. Workplace accidents that result in injuries, illnesses, and death are surprisingly common, even for jobs that don’t seem particularly dangerous. If you or a family member has been injured or killed on the job, it is important that you understand your rights and seek compensation for any damages.

It is a common misconception that workplace injuries can only be compensated through a claim filed through workers’ compensation. While this is true in some cases, there are extenuating circumstances in which an employee who is injured while working may be able to sue their employer or even third parties for damages. For example, if an employee suffered a workplace injury due to the negligence of a third party, such as a contractor, he or she may have the right to file a third-party liability lawsuit against that negligent party. Furthermore, an employee killed due to gross negligence on the part of the employer may also be able to file a wrongful death lawsuit and seek punitive damages. Of course, employers who do not carry workers’ compensation insurance are subject to negligence claims.

Types of Workplace Injuries

Over the last several years, the number of workplace fatalities has increased by 5% from previous years. Last year, there were almost 5,000 work-related fatalities in the U.S. If you sustain an injury due to the negligence of your employer or a co-worker, you may be able to sue for damages. These types of cases can be quite complicated because of workers’ compensation laws, which is why we encourage you to contact a member of our team.

Workplace injuries can range from physical to psychological or emotional trauma. Some of the most common injuries suffered on the job include:

  • Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)
  • Amputations
  • Electrocution
  • Paralysis from spinal cord injuries
  • Hearing loss
  • Vision loss
  • Broken or fractured bones
  • Back pain
