Drilling and fracking operations are notoriously dangerous. From leaks causing water contamination to catastrophic accidents, workers and nearby residents are at risk for injury. Some of the most frequent types of accidents include:

Fire
Explosions
Toxic exposure
Rig collapse
Machinery/equipment failures
Truck accidents
Well blowouts

These accidents can be caused by issues such as safety violations, defective or worn equipment, lack of training and failure to perform timely safety inspections. Depending on the circumstances of your accident, you may be eligible for workers’ compensation as well as compensation from a separate personal injury suit against a negligent third party.

Drilling and fracking workers may suffer burn injuries, crush injuries, broken bones, amputations, spinal cord injuries and traumatic brain injuries. These injuries can lead to temporary or permanent disability and wrongful death. We represent families that have lost loved ones in drilling accidents.
