Common Types of Work Accidents in Baytown Tx

Baytown Texas is home to some of the most vital resources available to the United States economy. Every day, countless workers perform dangerous work, knowing the hazards they may encounter. While some of the most common jobs in Baytown pose a risk to the employee (steel work, oil fields, petrochemical work), employees should expect their employers to make an environment as safe for work as possible. When employers fail to provide such an environment, the Texas work accident attorneys at Carabin Shaw step in to fight for the compensation that work injury victims are owed.

Any personal injury has the potential to carry devastating damages with it, but industrial work injuries are far more common to result in terrible physical harm that can impact victims for the rest of their lives. All of this while, at the same time, facing piling medical bills, lost work hours, and many other unjust consequences. Worker’s compensation will not always serve as the correct path to follow to recover those damages. Working with a Baytown industrial accident lawyer is the most reliable path towards winning your rightful settlement, regardless of type of injury you have suffered.

Our expert attorneys at Carabin Shaw have won the maximum possible compensation for our clients for over thirty years, ensuring that they have the time and resources necessary to focus entirely on their own recovery.
