  • Industrial accidents can happen any time a subcontractor, general contractor, or equipment manufacturer forgets to build safety into the equipment or process. Bad wiring can cause electrical burns and electrocution. Improper storage of chemicals or gases can lead to dangerous explosions.
  • Toxic exposure to petrochemicals and other chemical substances can cause conditions that lead to life-threatening illnesses and petrochemical exposure injuries.
  • Much like construction site accidents, negligence at petrochemical plants can result in scaffolding accidents, welding accidents, or conveyor accidents, among other types of accidents and injuries.
  • Oil refinery fires can get out of control, leading to serious burn injuries or explosions.

We can effectively handle personal injury and wrongful death claims. Our lawyers can help you understand the laws and your rights. You do not have to face a big company alone.
