Workplace Injuries Lawyer — San Antonio & Eagle Pass

Free case review, available 24/7. No fee unless we recover compensation for you.

Not every workplace injury is limited to a workers' compensation claim. When a third party (not your employer) causes your injury on the job, or when your employer doesn't carry workers' compensation coverage, you may have a separate personal injury claim.

When a Third-Party Claim Applies

If a subcontractor, equipment manufacturer, or other non-employer party contributed to your injury, you may be able to pursue a claim against them in addition to any workers' comp benefits.

Non-Subscriber Employers

Texas is unique in allowing employers to opt out of the workers' compensation system; if your employer is a 'non-subscriber,' you may be able to sue directly for your injuries.

Common Injuries

Falls, equipment accidents, repetitive strain injuries, and injuries from unsafe job-site conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I sue my employer for a workplace injury in Texas?

It depends on whether your employer carries workers' compensation coverage. Non-subscriber employers can potentially be sued directly for negligence.

What if a contractor, not my employer, caused my injury?

You may have a separate personal injury claim against that third party even while receiving workers' compensation benefits.
