Houston Industrial Injury Attorney
Were You Injured In A Industrial Accident?
At the Hollingsworth Law Firm, our experienced Houston personal injury lawyers know that our Texas economy is supported by inherently dangerous industries like oil and gas production and refining, construction, and agriculture.
These industries require the use of heavy equipment that is often compounded by dangerous conditions that come with the territory of working in oilfields, atop large structures, on farms, and in meat packing industries throughout the state.
So, what happens when an employee or the public at large is injured by an industrial accident?
Texas, unlike other states, does not require an employer to have workers’ compensation coverage. When employers go without coverage, they are open to personal injury lawsuits from employees who are injured on the job. The same is true for people who live near industrial facilities or who are injured as passersby.
If you have been injured in an industrial accident in Texas, we can help you pursue the liable party for your complete financial recovery whether you work at the facility or not.
Our Harris County personal injury attorneys have spent more than three decades working on both sides of the courtroom, gaining unparalleled experience of the inner workings of some of the world’s largest insurance companies, and transforming that knowledge into wins for our clients.
We can pursue the same results for you and your family.
Our skilled legal staff offers services in English, Spanish, Portuguese, and Mandarin because we believe in inclusion, fairness, and justice. It is only possible to successfully represent the people in our communities when we can successfully represent all people.

What Are the Most Common Types of Industrial Accidents in Texas?

I liked how Steve explained everything, so I knew what I was getting in to. Steve got me what I deserved in no time. I would recommend him to anyone.
Steven and I attended law school together and I have known him since 2000. He was stellar in representing a close friend with a personal injury matter. I have been very impressed with his communication, dedication and thoroughness in representation.
Steve is the real deal! He is an extremely invaluable resource on all things Litigation for me as a younger attorney. He is not only great a securing the bigger verdicts, but actually cares about the clients and still sticks by his tried and true method of meeting, in person, with his clients to go over facts . overall, a solid attorney, with a wealth of knowledge!
After working with Steve for a couple of years, I found Steve to be an outstanding, aggressive and highly skilled lawyer in the courtroom. His confidence and knowledge of the courtroom and what it takes to succeed there, I believe will ensure his long term prosperity.
I had the pleasure of working on a trial with Steven last August. His background as an ADA is clearly evident in the courtroom. Steven's presentation of the evidence throughout trial is that of a seasoned attorney who has spent many hours in front of a jury. His opening/closings were excellent, as well as his strategic litigating throughout the trial. Steven is a consummate professional and a pleasure to work with, and watch in the courtroom.
When I met Steve, I was a legal assistant at a Plaintiff’s firm and he was working as an attorney for AIG. We connected there and then. Steve is a likable guy and an outstanding trial lawyer. He is charismatic and jurors like him. He is a Plaintiff’s lawyer now and he has the right skill set to represent injured individuals: he is compassionate, honest, and sincere and will go the extra mile for his clients. I’ve known Steve for almost 8 years now and I’m excited to see his career evolve.
