Holding All Parties Responsible for Your Injuries with an Oil Field Injury Lawyer

Obtaining Justice in Your Oil Field Injury Case

Oil and gas extraction is big business in the United States. About 500,000 people work in the field when it comes to oil and gas extraction across the country, according to the U.S. Department of Labor.

The work undertaken by oil field workers is extremely dangerous. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration rates oil field work in the extraction industry to be seven times more dangerous than the average of all industrial occupations combined.

Approximately 80 oil field workers are killed annual in accidents. Thousands of hard-working individuals are injured in oil field accidents each year. An oil field injury lawyer is an invaluable resource when it comes to protecting your own legal rights in the aftermath of an accident.

Because of the complexity of the oil and gas industry, a primary challenge associated with protecting your legal interests is making sure all negligent parties are duly held responsible for your injuries. 

This task alone underscores the importance of discussing your case with an oil field injury lawyer from The Doan Law Firm legal team at (800) 349-0000.

Justice Demands Making All Responsible Parties Pay for Your Oil Field Accident Injuries

Oftentimes, the drilling and operation of an oil rig involves a web of different legal entities. These can include everything from an oil refinery company, an oil transport enterprise, a rig operator, equipment manufacturers, land owners, the companies purchasing refined product, and other contractors involved in a site.

The stark reality is that in your oil field injury case, multiple parties may be responsible for the accident that resulted in your injuries. For example, if there was some sort of mechanical malfunction at a drill site, a number of parties could be legally liable for the accident and your injuries. These may include parties ranging from an equipment manufacturer who created a defective item to the rig operator who may have failed to properly train you, and the rest of your crew, for this type of event.

Others may be legally responsible for your injuries as well. These may include companies purchasing refined product, oil transport company, and even a refinery. A skilled, experienced oil field injury lawyer is charged with demonstrating the legal connection between these different enterprises, the accident, and your injuries, damages, and losses.
