The Houston Ship Channel along with many sections of Texas are full of plants and refineries. Refinery explosions and injuries often occur due to negligence, disregarding safety regulations, working long hours, or poor supervision. Common causes include improper labeling, flammable materials, poor equipment maintenance, and unsafe working conditions.
Refinery injuries can range from explosions, burns, broken bones, and blunt force trauma all the way to fatalities. It is a dangerous industry and one where people don’t feel comfortable talking about their injuries.
There are a lot of potential culprits for your injuries if a refinery or plant is at issue. Specifically, contractors, third-party vendors, and leaseholders just to name a few.
When you have been injured at a plant or refinery, reach out to Attorney Matthew Dillahunty and he will help you figure out who is responsible and what you can do to protect your rights and get the justice you deserve.
