Industrial Accident
Claims and Mass Tort Claims
Industrial
accidents and other mass tort claims including chemical
plant explosions, chemical releases, large warehouse
fires, and pipeline explosions can cause mass destruction
including death, personal injuries, fatal injuries, toxic
exposure, chemical burns, and other significant damage.
Because of our global economy, these industrial accidents
can take place any place in the United States or in the
World, but be caused by greedy corporations and negligent
people in Texas or other parts of the United States. In many instances following a large
industrial accident the families of the victims have a
difficult time locating a Texas Industrial Accident Lawyer
or United States Industrial Accident Lawyer
to handle accidental death lawsuits, personal injury
lawsuits,
or property damage lawsuits against Texas corporations or
United States corporations that
made negligent safety decisions. Working with other
Texas Industrial Accident Lawyers and United States
Industrial Accident Lawyers, Jason Coomer is able to assist
people that have suffered the loss of family members,
serious personal injuries, and significant property damage
from large industrial accidents and work place accidents.
Under Texas law those
that make money and control heavy industries have a duty to
be aware of potential dangers. They also have a duty to
actively work to minimize dangers that they are aware of
that could kill, poison, burn, or injure people or cause
significant damage to property. Further, careless people or
businesses that have made decisions to save money and these
decisions have resulted in a catastrophic industrial
accident should be held responsible for there actions.
Families, businesses, and communities that have suffered
significant damages from large explosions, chemical spills,
fires, train derailment, flooding, or other large industrial
accident need to be compensated. In some circumstances
injured people, the family of a lost loved one, or a
businesses can recover damages under Texas law.

Lawsuits & Work Place Fatal Accident Lawsuits (Workers Comp, Responsible Third Party, and
Nonsubscriber Law Suits)
It is estimated that over 6,800 workers
per year are killed in on the job work related accidents.
This does not include undocumented workers and many workers
killed by toxic exposures, explosions, or unsafe working
environments.
In Texas, some work related deaths fall under
Texas workers compensation laws. In
such instances, workers comp benefits are given to the
dependants of the decedent and then the family of the
decedent is prevented from filing a law suit against the
employer. However, in these instances it is always a
good idea to look for potential responsible third parties including
making sure that the employer is actually the one paying the
person's pay check and controlling the work place. In
many situations an independent contractor, subcontractor, or other
responsible third party may be responsible for the death of a
worker. In these situations a law suit can be filed
against the responsible third party to obtain money
compensation from the responsible third party. If the
employer does not have worker compensation insurance, the
family of the worker can file suit directly against the
employer for an accidental death of a loved one. These claims are called non-subscriber
claims. Texas Industrial Accident
