Oil Field Injury

Oil Field Injury

At Martin Walker P.C., we understand the dangers and difficulties oil workers face. Especially today, with oil barrel prices down significantly, oil and gas companies that had been riding high are now suffering. Layoffs and site shutdowns have had a major effect on workers, but times can be tough even for those who kept their jobs. Equipment maintenance and worker safety standards can slip amid the mergers, bankruptcies, and divestitures that are becoming more common in these rough economic times, and that can result in catastrophic accidents. If you or a loved one has been injured on the job, give us a call. We have the experience and know how to help.
