Workplace Accidents
Houston Workplace Accident Lawyer
(Third-Party Injury Claims)
A serious workplace accident can leave you unable to work, facing medical treatment, and worried about your future. While workers’ compensation may provide some benefits, it is not always enough, especially when another company or person (not your employer) contributed to your injury. The Law Office of Shahin Zamir handles workplace injury claims involving negligent third parties.
Examples of Workplace Accident Cases We Handle
We consider potential third-party claims in cases involving:
- Construction site accidents caused by subcontractors
- Industrial or refinery accidents involving outside vendors
- Defective tools, machines, or equipment on the job
- Delivery drivers injured by negligent motorists
- Unsafe conditions on property owned by someone other than your employer
Third-Party Claims vs. Workers’ Compensation
Workers’ compensation is typically limited and may not cover all your losses. In some situations, you may have an additional claim against a negligent third party. Through a third-party personal injury claim, you may seek:
- Full reimbursement of medical expenses
- Lost wages and loss of future earning capacity
- Pain, suffering, and emotional distress
- Other damages not available through workers’ compensation alone
The Law Office of Shahin Zamir reviews the facts of your accident to identify all potential sources of recovery.
