Houston Oil Rig Accident Lawyers
An accident at an oil rig can cause devastating human and environmental damage. The attorneys of Tracey Law Firm help those injured in drilling rig accidents. We also represent the survivors of those who died a wrongful death on a gas or oil rig.
Analyzing Your Case
Each accident and each case must be evaluated carefully. Different laws apply depending on how and where the accident occurred. Claims for injuries caused by accidents that happened on a stationary rig are pursued through the Longshore and Harborworkers' Act; those that occurred on a jack-up or movable rig are Jones Act injury claims.
Our lawyers will ask you about your injury and the circumstances surrounding it. Then we will clearly explain your legal options and describe how we can help. We have obtained financial compensation for clients who suffered a wide range of injuries, including:
- Back injuries
- Head and brain injuries
- Spinal cord injuries
- Amputations
- Electrical injuries
- Burns
- Fractures
- Fatal injuries, including drowning
People working on oil rigs are doing the same kind of work as employees in a chemical plant, with the added danger of being in the water. Anything can happen; when it does, our attorneys are here to help.
