Oil Field Injury Overview

Oil field workers understand that they work in an extremely rewarding, yet dangerous work environment. The industry they’re employed in is motivated by high prices and the need to drill and/or maintain current production volumes. Unfortunately, these factors lead to many workers being seriously injured or killed as a result of an oil field accident or injury.

These injuries may be caused by employers requiring their workers to work double shifts or long hours without adequate breaks. They can also be caused by third-party contractors and/or general employer negligence.

Types of Cases We Handle

Many oil field operators or employers within this industry will often tell their employees that their only option for compensation in the event of an oil field accident is by filing a worker’s compensation claim.

It is important to understand that worker’s compensation may not be you’re only option to receiving the compensation you deserve.
