Oil Drilling Accidents

As the oil drilling industry in Texas continues to grow, there is the continued possibility that oil workers will be seriously injured on the job. Anytime negligence plays a role in accidents, workers are entitled to fair compensation for their injuries, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

The experienced attorneys of Rodriguez Trial Law can help you or your loved one recover compensation following an oil drilling accident on the Eagle Ford Shale. Our attorneys have more than five decades of combined experience, and founder Fidel Rodriguez, Jr., is a board-certified personal injury trial lawyer. With our firm, your case will be treated as if it’s going to trial from day one, and whether it ultimately goes to trial or is settled out of court, we will take every step possible to help you obtain full compensation for your injuries.

A Houston Chronicle investigation found that Texas leads the nation in oil field-related deaths in the United States — almost 40 percent of all fatal accidents. Don’t take your accident injuries lightly.
