Although some jobs are more dangerous than others, you can get injured no matter what your occupation, even when it doesn’t appear threatening. If you are injured on the job, and the injury results from certain wrongful conduct on the part of the employer or its employees, or you believe on the part of an equipment manufacturer or some outside company that serviced the equipment, you may be entitled to recover fair and just compensation for your injuries beyond what may be offered under your state’s worker compensation laws. The requirements for compensation vary between states and depend greatly upon the specific facts of your injury. More about McAllen Workplace Accident Lawyers here

About 20% (1,061) of worker fatalities in private industry in the calendar year 2019 were in construction – accounting for one in five worker deaths for the year.

Depending on the specifics of your case, it may be possible to receive some monetary compensation through Workers’ Compensation. However, in many situations, Workers’ Compensation is inadequate and does not come close to compensating you for your injuries. Our employee work injury attorneys are here to help you receive all the compensation you are entitled to.
