Work-related injury claims in Texas aren't always straightforward. Because Texas law allows many private employers to opt out of carrying workers' compensation insurance, the legal process can look very different depending on where you work.
If your employer provides workers' compensation coverage, you may be eligible to receive benefits through that system. If they don't, you may have the right to seek compensation by filing a personal injury claim against the responsible party.
Understanding which path applies to your situation can be confusing, especially when employers or insurance companies dispute liability or limit what they're willing to pay.
At Biggs & Greenslade, we help injured workers understand their rights, explain every available option, and fight for the compensation they deserve.
A workplace accident can create significant healthcare expenses, from surgeries to physical therapy. We pursue compensation for both immediate and ongoing treatment.
Time away from work often creates financial hardship. If your injuries prevented you from earning a paycheck or reduced your future earning capacity, we seek compensation for those losses.
Many workplace injuries affect far more than your finances. Chronic pain, emotional distress, anxiety, and a reduced quality of life can all be considered when calculating damages.
Some accidents permanently affect a person's ability to work or live independently. When injuries have lasting consequences, we pursue compensation that reflects those long-term challenges.
Every injury case is different. We carefully examine every aspect of your claim to identify all available damages under Texas law.
Many employees expect support after getting hurt on the job. Unfortunately, that's not always what happens.
Instead, some workers discover that their employer or insurance carrier is more concerned with reducing costs than helping them recover. You may encounter situations such as:
You don't have to face these challenges by yourself.

Employees who drive as part of their job may suffer serious injuries in collisions caused by negligent drivers, unsafe equipment, or dangerous road conditions.
Heavy machinery can become extremely dangerous when employers fail to provide proper training, maintenance, or safety procedures.
Slippery floors, uneven walking surfaces, defective stairs, poor lighting, and similar hazards frequently lead to serious workplace injuries that could have been avoided.
No matter how your injury occurred, our legal team can review your case and explain the legal options available to you.
Unlike many other states, Texas does not require most private employers to carry workers' compensation insurance. That means two employees with similar injuries may have completely different legal options depending on where they work.
If your employer participates in the workers' compensation system, you may qualify for medical and wage-loss benefits through that coverage.
If they don't, you may have the right to pursue compensation through a personal injury lawsuit instead.
Because every workplace accident is unique, it's important to understand which path offers the greatest protection. During your consultation, we'll explain your rights and help determine the best way to move forward.
Some job-related accidents have heartbreaking consequences for entire families.
When a fatal workplace accident results from unsafe conditions, negligence, or another party's misconduct, surviving family members may have legal grounds to pursue a wrongful death claim.
While no lawsuit can replace your loved one, compensation may help with funeral expenses, lost financial support, and other hardships while holding the responsible parties accountable.
