Industrial accidents have an immeasurable impact on workers and their families. Fighting for our clients has allowed us to get to know their kids, their spouses, their hopes, and their fears. After months of advocacy, our clients become like family to us. That’s why we fight so hard. For us, it’s like fighting for a brother, a sister, a parent, or a child. There’s nothing we wouldn’t do for our family, and the same relentless determination applies to our clients. No matter what.
No Matter How Big They Are.
Industrial accidents are serious, and come with opponents that have near-limitless resources. Their playbook always includes tactics like overwhelming clients with an army of lawyers, endless legal maneuvers, or constant threats of blacklisting. That’s why you need an industrial accident lawyer who knows how to level the playing field, who can stare down dozens of lawyers on the other side of the courtroom and not feel an ounce of intimidation. No matter what.

No Matter What Questions
-
What Is an Industrial Accident Attorney?
Industrial injury lawyers help workers who have been catastrophically injured in workplace accidents, as well as families who’ve lost those they’ve loved. These lawyers can take on a wide variety of cases, including plant accidents, factory accidents, manufacturing accidents, injuries caused by explosion, and more. They are there to help clients recover not only past, current, and future medical costs, but also damages such as lost wages. If you have been injured at work, or have a loved one who has, we encourage you to contact Arnold & Itkin immediately. We can help evaluate your case, discuss your options with you, and determine next steps. -
What If I Can’t Afford an Industrial Injury Lawyer?
At Arnold & Itkin, we take all industrial injury cases on a contingency fee basis. That means that you never pay unless we win. We take no fee upfront. We help cover all of the costs of your case so that you can focus on what’s truly important after an industrial accident: healing. -
What Are Common Industrial Accidents?
Industrial accidents can include those that occur at a wide variety of workplaces, such as drilling rigs, mines, warehouses, refineries, plants, factories, and even places such as grain mills and paper mills. This can include things such as explosions, fires, accidents involving heavy machinery, and more. Regardless of the type of accident, if you’ve been injured or if you’ve lost a loved one, you deserve to work with a lawyer you can trust. At Arnold & Itkin, we have a reputation for getting results. We’ve won billions and are here to help you. -
Can I Get Fired for Reporting Safety Violations?
Reporting violations, or “whistleblowing,” is protected by federal law, which means you cannot be fired, lose benefits, or lose hours as a result of reporting your employer. If you report your employer’s safety violations to OSHA or any other agency, your employer could be subject to serious legal liability if they retaliate against you. If you report those violations to your attorney after an accident, you’ll be protected by an additional shield: attorney-client confidentiality. -
Is Aging or Defective Equipment to Blame?
In our experience, aging or defective equipment is often to blame for industrial accidents. Plants and refineries around the country rely on old machines, and many of these machines can go years without maintenance. With corporate neglect, accidents are inevitable. Some of our biggest industrial accident cases were triggered by equipment that broke due to lack of maintenance. -
What Industries Have the Most Accidents?
Industries that are prone to serious accidents include paper mills, grain mills, chemical plans, oil rigs, warehousing, trucking, commercial fishing, lumberyards, roofing, meat processing plants, and chemical processing. Oil and gas refineries are among the worst offenders, statistically. However, employers have no excuse for a dangerous workplace, no matter the work they’re doing.
No Matter the Situation.
