Houston Offshore Injury Lawyers

Our Texas Offshore Injury Attorneys Fight for Injured Offshore Workers Nationwide

Anywhere there’s navigable water, there are offshore workers giving their all to make a living. Deck hands, oil and gas employees, and other workers are exposed to dangerous conditions every day. Companies know of these dangers and are obligated to protect their employees. Yet, they often fail.

When a preventable accident shatters workers’ lives and the company fails to do what’s right, Arnold & Itkin is there to help. Workers call us when their entire lives are at stake and only the best attorney will do. Delivering the results that they need is more than just our job—it’s our calling.

We’ve helped clients after devastating events across the globe, including oil rig explosions and fires, dredging accidents, diving accidents, vessel collisions, crane failures, and more. From the Jones Act to the Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act, we know maritime law and are here to help. We proudly represent clients in Houston, Dallas, Baton Rouge, and beyond.

If you've been hurt in an offshore accident, call Arnold & Itkin. When the other side isn’t being fair, we fight back. When oil and gas companies aren’t truthful, we catch their lies. When workers need results, our team of offshore injury attorneys works tirelessly to make sure they get them. No matter what.

No Matter How Tough
the Fight.

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.

Watch Mildred's Story
“I told him, “Kurt you’re my hero. You’re my knight in shining armor.” Because that’s how I feel toward him. He’s there to protect me, and I feel so safe. They are driven. They are aggressive. They will not quit for you. They will not give up for you. That’s what makes them special.”
Mildred Solar Cortes El Faro Widow

When someone comes to us for help, it’s impossible not to care. Our clients come to us after losing everything, and we stop at nothing to make sure they get the help they need. We make it a point to treat them like family. If they need medical care, we make sure they get it. When the other side is unfair, we never back down from the fight. The results we earn change lives for the better, and we never take that responsibility lightly.

No Matter How Big They Are.

When the Deepwater Horizon exploded, we refused to let some of the largest companies in the world shift the blame to its crewmembers. When the El Faro sailed into a hurricane and sank, we were there to make sure the company made things right. Neither process was simple, but both cases ended how they should have: with the injured and grieving receiving the fair compensation that they needed. With some of history’s largest personal injury victories, our firm is here to make sure big companies treat regular people right. We’re here to help you win.
