Oilfield Accident

Houston Oilfield Accident Attorney

The oil industry is a huge part of the workforce throughout Texas and this is especially true in Houston. Employees are attracted to oil companies because the pay is good. However, this incentive comes with a cost. The duties of the job are often very physically demanding, and the work conditions are known to be extremely dangerous. Big oil and refinery companies are infamous for being all about the bottom dollar. This motivates oil companies to find every way possible to cut cost. The easiest way to lower cost is to start cutting corners. Severe injury is a very real reality when working on an oil rig or within a refinery just because of the nature of the work. This risk is only heightened by the profit first mentality. To complicate matters, often more than one oil company can be working side by side on any given job site. This can make it extremely hard to determine who is responsible for causing a specific accident in any given case. If you or a loved one have been injured on an oil rig or within a refinery, call Stanley Injury Law today to discuss how to take on the deep pockets of big oil companies.
