What Are Your Options After a Workplace Injury?

Workplace injury cases can take different paths depending on your job, your employer’s coverage, and who contributed to the incident.

Workers’ Compensation (When Applicable)

Some employers carry workers’ comp. This can help cover medical treatment and a portion of lost wages, but it may not fully compensate you for all losses.

Third-Party Injury Claims

In many Texas workplace injuries, someone other than your employer may be responsible. A third-party claim can potentially provide compensation for losses that workers’ comp may not cover.

Common third-party situations include:

  • Negligent drivers causing injuries during work travel
  • Subcontractor negligence on a job site
  • Defective tools, machinery, or safety equipment
  • Property owner negligence (unsafe premises)

If a third party contributed to your injury, we investigate all possible claims.

Injuries That Often Lead to Long-Term Costs

Workplace injuries can require ongoing care, surgery, rehabilitation, and months away from work. Severe cases may involve permanent impairment, disability, or the need for long-term assistance.

If your injury affects your ability to earn a living, your claim should account for:

  • Future medical care
  • Reduced earning capacity
  • Physical limitations and pain
  • Long-term rehab and therapy needs

Compensation That May Be Available

Depending on the type of claim, compensation may include:

  • Medical expenses and future care
  • Lost wages and reduced earning capacity
  • Pain and suffering
  • Mental anguish and emotional distress
  • Physical impairment or disability
  • Out-of-pocket costs related to treatment and recovery

If a workplace accident results in a fatal injury, families may have options through a wrongful death claim.

What to Do After a Workplace Injury in Texas

To protect your health and your rights:

  1. Get medical treatment immediately
  2. Report the injury to your supervisor as soon as possible
  3. Document what happened (photos, witnesses, equipment involved)
  4. Keep copies of incident reports, medical records, and work restrictions
  5. Avoid signing broad releases or giving recorded statements without legal guidance

Early documentation can make a major difference in the outcome of a claim.

Do I have a case if my employer doesn’t have workers’ compensation?
Possibly. Your options depend on your employer’s status and the facts of the accident. Third-party claims may also apply.
Can I sue my employer for a workplace injury?
That depends on the circumstances and the employer’s coverage. Many cases focus on third-party liability when another company, driver, or manufacturer contributed to the injury.
What if I was injured in a car crash while working?

That may involve a third-party claim against the at-fault driver, in addition to any other benefits available.
