No other group suffers more from cutting corners on safety than offshore workers. Decades of loose adherence to safety regulations have meant that the largest companies aren’t held accountable for serious negligence. Inevitably, that negligence severely injures or kills their workers. After an accident, companies offer low settlements, deny responsibility, or even try to shift the blame to workers. This isn’t right. At Arnold & Itkin, we've recovered over $10 billion for clients. We’ve heard every excuse that offshore companies try to use. We’ve seen every tactic from their hordes of lawyers. We refuse to give into them because our clients deserve results, no matter what.
After a serious accident in Houston, get medical care as soon as possible, document what you can, avoid giving statements to the other party’s insurance company, and speak with a legal team before evidence disappears. Photos, witness information, medical records, vehicle data, workplace records, and company safety documents can all become important depending on what happened.
