When any type of on-the-job accident happens, accident victims are at risk of suffering severe personal injuries. Heavy lifting can cause debilitating back and neck injuries. A traumatic brain injury or spinal cord injury can cause permanent disability or paralysis. A seemingly minor slip and fall accident can cause long-term negative health effects. These injuries can lead to pain and suffering, as well as the prospect of steep medical bills and lost wages from missing work.
Case results matter for workplace injury victims
Expenses associated with serious workplace injuries can add up fast. This is especially true if you or a loved one cannot work for weeks or months or perhaps ever again. Permanent disabilities due to workplace accidents are common as well.
That’s why the money we obtain for injured workers is so important. This money can often be a lifeline and make a dramatic difference in people’s lives. Some of our recent notable settlements and verdicts for workplace injury victims in Texas include:
- $2,000,000 settlement for workplace injury victim who sustained multiple bone fractures and a traumatic brain injury.
- Undisclosed settlement for family members after fatal workplace accident on oil rig.
- Undisclosed settlement for family members of worker killed in fatal workplace explosion.
- Undisclosed settlement for worker critically injured on the job.
- $750,000 settlement for client injured in workplace accident that required surgery and on-going medical care.
While these results demonstrate the potential for substantial compensation, the average settlement range for work injury cases in Texas generally falls between $10,000 and $50,000 for less severe injuries. For more serious or catastrophic injuries, settlements can exceed $100,000 and, in some cases, reach several hundred thousand dollars or even millions.
However, it's important to remember that each case is unique. The final settlement amount depends on various factors, including medical expenses, lost wages, long-term disability, and the degree of negligence involved. To better understand the value of your case, speak with an experienced Texas work injury lawyer.
