Choosing Your Denver Oil & Gas Accident Lawyer

The last decade has seen a dramatic rise in oil and gas drilling accidents. This may be due, at least partially, to the increase in demand for oil and gas contrasted with a diminishing supply. Job bosses sometimes put production and output first, to the detriment of worker safety. Oil and gas refinery accidents are a leading cause of workplace injuries and deaths due to the inherently dangerous requirements of these productions. If you’ve been hurt, contact our Denver oil and gas accident lawyers as soon as possible.

Frequently Asked Oil and Gas Accident Questions

How Can One Avoid an Oil and Gas Accident?

In order to limit the hazards faced by oil and gas workers, including burns and other serious injuries, employers and companies are required to keep drilling sites as safe as possible. They do this, in part, by observing safety guidelines such as those set out by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), a federal body determined to protect employees by regulating jobsite safety. Failure to observe these regulations could lead to worker injury or death.

What Are Some Common Causes of Oil and Gas Injuries?

Some common causes of oil and gas injuries include:

  • Defective equipment / machinery
  • Fires /explosions
  • Frac tank accidents
  • Blowouts
  • Crush Injuries
  • Rig Collapse
  • Insufficient safety restraints leading to falls from rigs and other equipment
  • Well pad injuries
  • Hot sludge injuries
  • Exposure to dangerous chemicals

What Our Clients Are Saying

W Jang

“I got into a terrible car accident in 2020 and the other party who was at fault tried to pin the accident on me. I have back problems due to the car accident and have been through multiple kinds of treatment and surgeries. Jason and his team helped me in a way as if i was family and helped me receive a settlement that covered my medical bills along with supporting me and my family until i can get back on my feet.

This car accident was terrible and without you guys, and your help I am not sure where I would be. Thank you all so much. Janele”
Maria R.
Accident
“They were amazing to work with since day 1. My previous lawyer had too many cases and referred me to them and they immediately told me what I need to do and what to expect. I was not in the dark. They also kept me updated throughout the whole process when there were updates and even when there were no big updates. They even advocated for me and negotiated to get me more money. They were great. Ashley Reisman was such a pleasure to work with and talk to specifically too 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼”
Brad P.
Personal Injury
“Not very often do you find a personal injury attorney that is both excellent in the courtroom AND empathetic towards their client’s needs. Jason Jordan is not only the perfect combination of the two, he goes above and beyond to make sure each and every one of his clients feels heard and understood throughout all phases of the personal injury case.”
