Were You Hurt in an Industrial or Plant Explosion?

Plant and factory explosions are among the most devastating events a worker can survive. Chemical fires, pressure buildup, equipment failures, and ignored safety violations can cause catastrophic burns, blast trauma, traumatic brain injury, loss of limb, toxic exposure, and wrongful death.

When an industrial company cuts corners on safety, workers and families pay the price. A workers' compensation claim alone rarely covers the full scope of what you've lost. You deserve complete accountability — and full compensation.

What a Plant Explosion Attorney at Almaraz Law Firm Can Do for You

Attorney Rosendo Almaraz Jr. and the Almaraz Law Firm handle the full range of industrial explosion and workplace accident claims, including:

• Chemical plant explosion injuries and toxic exposure
• Refinery explosion and industrial fire burns
• Factory and manufacturing plant accidents
• Oilfield and gas plant explosions
• Workplace explosion injuries involving third-party contractors and subcontractors

We investigate the root cause of the explosion, obtain OSHA violation records, work with engineering and safety professionals, and identify every responsible party — plant owners, equipment manufacturers, property managers, and negligent employers. Our goal is to build the strongest possible case and fight for maximum recovery.

Frequently Asked Questions — Plant Explosion Claims in McAllen, TX

What should I do immediately after a plant or factory explosion injury?

Seek medical attention right away. If safely possible, document the scene and preserve any evidence. Report the incident to your employer, and contact an industrial accident lawyer before speaking with any insurance adjuster or company representative.

Can I sue my employer if I was injured in a workplace explosion in Texas?

Texas workers' compensation may limit a direct claim against your employer in some cases. However, if a third party — such as an equipment manufacturer, chemical supplier, or independent contractor — contributed to the explosion, you may have a separate personal injury claim for full damages beyond what workers' comp allows.

How long do I have to file a plant explosion lawsuit in Texas?

Texas law generally allows two years from the date of injury to file a personal injury claim. Acting promptly protects critical physical evidence and witness accounts.

What compensation can I recover after an industrial explosion?

Depending on your case, you may recover past and future medical costs, lost wages, loss of earning capacity, pain and suffering, mental anguish, permanent physical impairment, and — in wrongful death cases — loss of companionship and financial support.
