It is vital you consult an attorney immediately following your injury. This way, an investigation can begin when witnesses’ recollections are fresh and evidence remains available. While you should focus on your recovery, it’s important to protect your legal rights.

Texas Attorney Fights for Victims in Oil and Gas Field Accidents
A Texas attorney has recovered millions for victims
Oil and gas field workers put their bodies on the line every day to extract the natural resources needed to keep American running. These workers face many risks, whether on land or water. They are vulnerable to catastrophic injuries, such as equipment failures, fires, and toxic gas spills. In the event of a serious injury, victims and families need a lawyer who is aggressive and has a thorough understanding of energy extraction. We have an established track record in Texas of recovering multi-million dollar settlements for oil and gas workers injured on offshore platforms, as well as victims of accidents that occurred in oil and gas fields. Ed Allred, an experienced litigator who has represented both plaintiffs as well as defendants in cases involving the energy industry, is currently representing the largest independent oil refinery company in the United States. This background allows our firm to provide the best legal representation for oil and gas workers.
How energy workers are injured
There are many different ways that energy extraction workers can be seriously hurt, including:
- Collapses — Digging a cellar around a wellhead is a dangerous activity where workers are commonly injured because the excavation caves in. Platform failures and falling equipment are also common causes of catastrophic and fatal injuries.
- Explosions and fires — Flammable gasses, improper venting high-pressure wells or unsafe electrical practices, among other hazards, can cause explosions and fires in drilling and extraction sites.
- Equipment failures and strikes — Derricks, wells, refineries and other sites populated by oil and gas workers depend on heavy equipment and vehicles. A defective or poorly maintained machine can cause an accident that injures one or more individuals. Vehicle accidents and injuries from dropped equipment are common in energy fields due to the busy activity.
- Falls from high locations — Having represented clients in cases stemming from falls from energy field platforms, high-rise buildings and other locations, Ed Allred has a thorough understanding of how these accidents occur and how they could have been prevented.
- Toxic exposure — Cellars and other confined spaces can quickly fill with hydrogen sulfide, carbon monoxide or other hazardous substances. Even a few minutes of exposure could force someone to seek immediate medical treatment. In the worst cases, poisonous vapors could be deadly.
No matter what your specific work duties are or how long you’ve been on the job, you have rights if you’ve been hurt at work. Your employer might not tell you about the money you can receive to help pay for medical costs, lost wages and other harm related to your accident, but our firm offers a free consultation so you can learn about your options. There is no up-front cost. We are paid only after you have received a financial recovery.
The most common injuries suffered by workers in the energy sector
To obtain compensation for an injury in the oil or gas industry, you will need to present medical evidence as well as possible expert testimony. Medical conditions at issue in these cases include:
- Broken and fractured bones
- Burns caused by thermal and chemical agents
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Diseases caused by toxic substances
- Internal injuries
- Muscle, tendon, and ligament tears
- Spinal cord injury can cause paralysis and other symptoms.
In cases where an accident in an energy field or on an offshore rig was fatal, our firm represents bereaved family members and estates in wrongful death actions.
If you have been injured on an oil field or gasfield, contact a Texas injury attorney for a consultation.

Texas Truck Accident Attorney Pursues Justice for Victims
An experienced lawyer helps people injured in accidents involving 18-wheelers or other large trucks
Large trucks and other commercial vehicles pose a serious risk to others on the road when they’re not being operated properly. Even at low speeds, the weight and force from a large truck can cause serious injuries. Commercial vehicles are subject to special rules and their drivers must have a special licence. We at Allred Law Firm, in Texas, know how to deal with these cases, so that Texas truck accident survivors can receive the compensation they deserve. Ed Allred, a lawyer with more than 25 years’ experience in successfully litigating various legal matters is committed to helping injured clients receive the compensation they need to support their families.
Firm handles cases stemming from commercial vehicle collisions
In an instant, a jackknifed tractor-trailer, rollover, T-Bone or rear-end collision can change a victim’s life forever. The lawyer you choose can make the difference between receiving fair compensation for your injuries and struggling financially to pay your bills. Our attorneys use their detailed knowledge of the truck accident to represent CDL-holders as well as those who have been struck by an 18-wheeler.
Compensation you may be entitled to if you have been injured in a truck accident
Victims of truck accidents can collect the following types of damages under Texas law:
- Reimbursement for medical bills and rehabilitation expenses
- Replacement of wages and other income you could not earn due to your injury
- Damages for pain and suffering – physical and emotional distress
- Compensation for scarring, bodily disfigurement and other lasting effects of the accident
- You can get compensation for your loss of enjoyment of life due to the crash
Texas’s statute of limitations is two years. You should contact our firm as soon as possible instead of waiting. The harder it is to find witnesses and evidence, the more difficult it becomes. You can get started right away without paying anything up front, because you will only be billed as a percentage of any payment you receive from defendants at the conclusion of your case.
Parties who may be responsible for a truck accident claim
The majority of passenger cars are driven by the owner or a family member. It is therefore easy to determine who is responsible for a collision. On the other hand, many different parties could be responsible for a collision involving a commercial vehicle. Someone driving for Amazon, UPS, FedEx or another company does not control how their truck is maintained, so they might have no idea that the brakes are worn out or there is a defect in the steering mechanism. Other times, an employer or contracting business may overload a 18-wheeler or force the driver to drive for long hours without rest to meet a deadline. Attorney Ed Allred has handled complex cases for decades and will take action against all of the potentially liable defendants.
