Explosion Death and Serious Injuries
When companies put profit and deadlines above safety, injuries and death are often the result.
The Cappolino Dodd Krebs, LLP track record in industrial explosions and accidents speaks for itself. Our attorneys have secured multi-million dollar verdicts and settlements for workplace explosion and other accident victims in counties throughout Texas. Past successes include workplace explosion death cases, workplace injuries, and cases involving on-the-job accidents of many different kinds. Our attorneys have over 100 years of combined experience litigating workplace explosions and industrial injuries. Our attorneys have extensive knowledge of Texas Workers Compensation laws and workplace safety regulations. In many instances, employees may have avenues of recovery outside of the workers compensation system.
For example, employees who are injured by the acts of a third party who is not their employer may be able to get settlements well beyond workers compensation. In other words, if your injury was the result of a mechanical mishap, a defective product, or another company’s employee, we may be able to file a third-party lawsuit, holding that manufacturer, company and/or another person responsible. Another example of recovery beyond the workers compensation system would be cases where the employer who caused the injury is a non-subscribers to workers compensation insurance. There are a wide variety of situations and scenarios in which you may have additional routes to recover money for your injuries, but it requires a highly experienced workplace injury attorney to know the ins and outs of the law and maximize the amount of compensation you are entitled to receive.
Although it may be difficult to do in the immediate aftermath of a workplace explosion injury or other accident, speaking to our local attorneys is important. We can secure evidence that may later be destroyed, including witness testimony, which can be incredibly beneficial to any injury claim. The sooner you act, the more likely it is that your claim can be successful. Appointments are available in any of our local offices or we can come to you at the meeting place of your choice.
