Baytown Attorneys Representing People Injured in Industrial Accidents

Common Accident Scenarios

At The Linebaugh Law Firm, we represent those injured in industrial accidents facing the following scenarios:

Employers with workers' compensation coverage - If your injury is caused only by a co-worker and your employer subscribes to workers' compensation, then your only action may be for workers' compensation benefits. You will probably need a workers' compensation lawyer, and we will refer you to one who can handle that case.

Employer without workers' compensation coverage - If you're injured at work and your employer does not carry workers' compensation insurance, you may have a case against your employer. Our attorneys can investigate the accident and find out whether your employer had the right safety procedures, the right training, and/or the right equipment in place to prevent your injury.

Injured on the job by a third party - Suppose you were injured by a pipe that fell off the trailer of an 18-wheeler that was making a delivery at your plant. In this set of facts, you could apply for workers' compensation from your employer and still make a case against the trucking company.

Injured on the job by a dangerous product - If the injury was caused by a dangerous product, you may be able to file a lawsuit against the company that manufactured the product or the store that sold the product.

Whenever the facts change, different remedies may be available. It is important for your lawyer to learn the details of what happened so you can work towards getting maximum compensation for your injuries.

We are experienced handling all types of industrial accident cases, including petrochemical and pipeline explosion cases.
