Causes of Oilfield Accidents and Liability

At the law office of Webb, Stokes & Sparks, our injury lawyers understand the oil industry. We know how greed and bad judgment can result in serious injury or wrongful death on the job site. We also know how difficult it can be for families to pick up the pieces after a loved one has been injured on the job.

We handle oil field accident personal injury and wrongful death lawsuits involving:

  • Compressor stations
  • Pump jacks
  • Work rigs
  • Equipment failure
  • Defective products
  • Blow outs

Negligence within any part of an oilfield operation can result in injury. Employers are commonly liable for accidents, and in these cases, filing a workers’ compensation claim may be the best way to recover compensation for your injuries.

Oilfield accidents can also be caused by third-party negligence. For example, a defective piece of equipment can cause severe injury to the worker using it. The equipment designer, manufacturer, or retailer may be liable for damages. In cases of transportation accidents, a driver may be liable.

Our legal team can help you determine who is liable for your oilfield accident and ensure they are held accountable.
