WORKPLACE INJURIES
Houston Workplace Injury Attorney | Free Consultation
Every worker deserves a safe environment. When employers, property owners, or third parties fail to maintain safe working conditions, the results can be devastating. The Law Office of Jas Jordan, PLLC represents injured workers throughout Houston and Harris County, helping them recover the full compensation they are owed for injuries suffered on the job.
A workplace injury is any harm sustained by an employee while performing job duties or while present on a work premises. These injuries include physical accidents, repetitive stress injuries, exposure to toxic substances, and incidents involving third parties. If you were hurt on the job through no fault of your own, you may be entitled to compensation beyond what workers' compensation alone provides.
Common Workplace Injury Cases We Handle:
- Slip and falls on wet or improperly maintained floors
- Struck-by injuries from falling tools, materials, or equipment
- Machine and equipment malfunctions causing severe injuries
- Repetitive motion injuries from ergonomically poor work environments
- Exposure to toxic chemicals or hazardous fumes
- Warehouse and forklift accidents
- Assaults in the workplace by customers or third parties
- Construction site injuries involving scaffolding or heavy machinery
What to Do After a Workplace Injury:
1. Report the injury to your employer in writing immediately
2. Call 911 if the injury is serious
3. Document the scene with photographs before anything is moved or cleaned
4. Collect names and contact information of coworkers who witnessed the incident
5. Seek medical treatment promptly and follow all treatment recommendations
6. Do not provide a recorded statement to any insurance adjuster without legal counsel
7. Call The Law Office of Jas Jordan to understand all of your legal options
Note: Texas is the only state that does not require most private employers to carry workers' compensation insurance. Even if your employer has coverage, you may also have a separate claim against a third party such as a contractor or equipment manufacturer.
