Types of Industrial Accident Cases We Handle

The workplace accident attorneys at Oberheiden Law Group represent injured workers and their families after all types of industrial accidents requiring medical treatment or resulting in tragic and untimely deaths. This includes (but is not limited to):

Construction Accidents

Construction accidents are among the leading causes of serious injuries on the job. From inadequate safety equipment to property owner negligence (i.e., failing to remedy safety hazards), numerous issues can put construction workers at risk simply as a result of performing their job duties. If you have a claim involving a work-related accident on a construction site, the injury lawyers at our law firm are prepared to do everything we can to hold the at-fault party (or at-fault parties) fully accountable.

Manufacturing Accidents

Manufacturing accidents are common causes of workplace injuries as well. This includes accidents resulting from poor management of manufacturing facilities as well as inadequate equipment maintenance and a variety of other manufacturing-related issues.

This also includes chemical spills. If you have a personal injury lawsuit or wrongful death lawsuit related to a chemical spill, our industrial accident lawyers can investigate the circumstances surrounding the spill to determine who (or what company) is liable. Then, our lawyers can fight to secure a settlement from the liable party’s insurance company on your behalf.

Heavy Machinery and Other Motor Vehicle Accidents

Accidents involving heavy machinery and other motor vehicles are common causes of serious and fatal on-the-job injuries in industrial occupations. This includes forklift accidents and vehicle collisions on construction sites and other job sites, among others. In these cases, not only might victims and their families have claims against the at-fault driver, but they may have claims against the driver’s employer as well. Our injury lawyers represent victims and families after transportation accidents both on and off the job.

Accidents Involving Defective Industrial Equipment

Equipment failures and equipment malfunctions resulting from manufacturing defects and other issues are also common causes of on-the-job injuries resulting in permanent disabilities and other life-altering (or life-threatening) injuries. If you or a loved one was injured in an industrial accident involving defective equipment, the manufacturer may be fully liable for your (or your loved one’s) work-related injuries.

Accidents Involving Inadequate Safety Protocols

Industrial employers are required to follow numerous safety protocols enforced by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and other governmental authorities. Yet, accidents involving inadequate safety protocols are extremely common. As a result, many injured workers will have claims based on the fact that their physical pain and psychological injuries could—and should—have been avoided.

Other Workplace Accidents

Industrial accidents occur under a wide range of other circumstances as well. No matter what happened, if you need to seek compensation for the costs of medical treatment, lost wages, and other losses resulting from any type of workplace accident, we strongly encourage you to contact us for a free consultation today. Workers who suffer injuries and family members who lose loved ones have clear legal rights, and our workplace injury lawyers are committed to fighting for justice on behalf of victims and their families.

Most Common Workplace Injuries from Industrial Accidents

Industrial accidents can leave all types of workers suffering from serious workplace injuries. These injuries can lead to expensive medical bills, and they can leave workers and their families facing a variety of other financial and non-financial losses as well.

Our industrial accident lawyers handle cases involving all types of workplace injuries, including (but not limited to) common injuries such as:

• Burns (chemical burns and burns from fires and explosions)
• Broken bones
• Internal bleeding
• Loss of digits and limbs

As a client of our law firm, you will have extensive experience on your side, and you can feel confident knowing that we truly have your best interests in mind.
