Workplace Accidents

There are a lot of dangerous jobs in Texas. When employers don’t take the necessary precautions, workers can be injured in accidents such as falls, spills, explosions, and motor vehicle accidents.

At The Lenahan Law Firm, we have won large settlements for injured workers and their families. When we sit down with you to go over your case, we’ll determine the best strategy for pursuing compensation.

If you were seriously injured or a loved one was hurt or killed in a workplace accident, speak to an experienced Dallas on the job injury lawyer at The Lenahan Law Firm by calling (214) 295-1008.

In many cases, injured workers have the right to workers’ compensation benefits. But Texas doesn’t require employers to provide workers’ compensation coverage to their employees. In fact, more than one out of four private, year-round employers in Texas doesn’t carry workers’ compensation insurance at all. There are no liability limits for companies that don’t carry workers compensation insurance, and that means their employees can receive high damage awards for worker injury cases.

Even if you have workers’ compensation, your attorney may be able to pursue additional compensation from third parties such as negligent equipment manufacturers, independent contractors, or property owners.
