With our extensive experience handling a wide range of personal injury cases, including those stemming from workplace incidents, a Frenkel & Frenkel work injury lawyer in Dallas is well-equipped to provide dedicated legal representation and pursue rightful compensation for the injured party.

Workplace injury claims and lawsuits

Suffering an accident while at work can be a physical and emotional disaster. In cases of serious, life-threatening, or catastrophic injury, the consequences can last a lifetime, affecting the ability to work or enjoy life.

Injured on the job?

The work injury lawyers at Frenkel & Frenkel can help you seek compensation if you were injured in an accident while on the job. For example, if you are a construction worker, contractors and subcontractors must adhere to federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) safety regulations to avoid preventable accidents. We will investigate your on-the-job accident to determine whether negligence requires that you be provided with compensation for your injuries and lost wages.

Understanding your rights

Workers’ compensation provides monetary benefits for anyone injured because of their negligence or negligence on the part of their employer. However, when employers don’t carry workers’ compensation insurance, an industrial or construction accident victim can sue an employer for negligence. If your employer or coworker was negligent and harmed you, or if your workplace failed to follow OSHA safety regulations, Frenkel & Frenkel can help.

Lawsuits against an employer

Employees can also bring a claim or sue their employer when employers only carry workers’ compensation insurance in certain circumstances. One of these circumstances is when the employee dies due to the employer’s gross negligence, which is a higher level of negligence.

The type of litigation research and support performed for those who have suffered injuries on the job depends on the job environment and specific regulations surrounding the industry. Many industries deal with large, well-connected organizations such as oil companies, commercial construction companies, and energy providers. In any case, it is crucial not to rush into a negotiation without getting feedback from an experienced personal injury lawyer in Dallas who is capable of providing the kind of support and confidence that comes from experience dealing with businesses of all shapes and sizes.
