Frequently Asked Questions About Refinery Injuries in Houston
Incidents may involve burns, chemical exposure, explosions, equipment failures, or falls. Some result in serious long-term health effects.
Depending on the situation, liability may involve contractors, subcontractors, equipment manufacturers, or other third parties on site.
If someone other than your direct employer contributed to the injury—such as a vendor, equipment company, or outside contractor—a third-party claim might be possible.
That depends on the nature of the incident and who was responsible. Some choose to explore legal options through third-party claims.
In certain cases involving negligence or unsafe working conditions, injury claims may involve specific legal strategies based on how the injury occurred.
Explosions often result in complex investigations and may involve multiple parties. These cases are sometimes handled differently due to their scale and cause.
Chemical exposure may lead to serious or delayed health effects. Some workers seek evaluations to determine whether a legal claim might apply.
If unsafe practices or lack of compliance contributed to the injury, some individuals may choose to consult legal counsel to better understand their options.
Many personal injury claims in Texas have a two-year deadline, though each case can vary. Gathering evidence early may be important.
