Should You Hire an Oilfield Accident Lawyer in Odessa?
If you were in an accident involving a Permian Basin drilling rig, we highly recommend calling an attorney experienced with the local oil and gas industry. Unlike most other states, you might not have workers’ compensation insurance in Texas. A lawyer will review your situation and explain how to move forward.
-
Your OptionsAfter getting medical care, learning your legal options is the most important thing you can do. We will review whether your employer provides workers’ comp insurance. If so, we can guide you through making a claim. If not, you may be able to file a lawsuit. We also will investigate liability and determine whether you may file suit against a third party.
-
Independent InvestigationAnother benefit of hiring a law firm experienced with oil drilling accidents is an independent investigation. At Kemmy Law Firm, we are thorough in gathering and reviewing the evidence. We will find out what happened and who is at fault.
-
Regulatory ViolationsDuring an investigation, we look for any federal or state regulatory violations, such as OSHA violations. If we find any evidence of violations, we inform the appropriate authorities. In some cases, violations can support your compensation claim.
-
Maximum CompensationThe most significant benefit of hiring an oil rig injury attorney is having a better chance of recovering max compensation, whether through a lawsuit or workers’ comp insurance claim. Kemmy Law Firm will aggressively pursue the full amount possible for your physical, emotional, and financial injuries.
