How an Attorney Can Help

There are many important benefits to hiring an attorney to represent you during a refinery explosion case. If you have serious injuries, such as severe burns, an insurance company may try to undervalue your claim and offer an inadequate settlement.  

Accepting an offer without having a lawyer negotiate for you could mean not receiving enough to pay for future necessary medical treatments or what may be a lifetime of disability, disfigurement and lost wages. Our law firm is capable of hiring experts and going to trial, if necessary, to pursue maximum financial compensation for your losses while you focus on healing. 

Our refinery explosion attorneys will investigate the incident and collect any available evidence of negligence, or the failure to use proper care, in connection to your case. We will identify the at-fault party or parties and handle confusing legal paperwork to file an insurance claim, workers’ compensation claim or personal injury lawsuit on your behalf. 

Refinery Explosions Are Often Preventable

Texas produces 29 percent of the nation’s oil and employs around 100,000 oil and gas workers. Refineries in the state must abide by certain laws and regulations to keep their workers safe. Unfortunately, not all companies and supervisors follow these laws. They often cut corners to save time or money, endangering the lives of refinery workers.

When a refinery is plagued by negligence such as defective equipment, poor equipment maintenance, inadequate worker training, improper storage of flammable materials, electric hazards and human errors, disasters such as fires and explosions occur. These incidents can cause burns, broken bones, lacerations, eye injuries, brain injuries, amputations and wrongful death.

Financial Compensation Available to Victims of Refinery Explosions 

In the aftermath of a refinery explosion in New Braunfels, injured victims and the loved ones of deceased workers can file lawsuits to seek justice. You may be eligible for financial compensation for losses such as:

  • Past and future medical bills
  • Lost wages

  • Permanent scarring or disfigurement
  • Loss of enjoyment of life
  • Punitive damages, in some cases
