Workplace Accidents
Hurt on the job in Houston? You may be entitled to more than workers’ comp.
Texas has one of the highest rates of workplace injuries in the country—especially in industries like oil, construction, and manufacturing. If you’ve been seriously hurt on the job, you may have more legal options than your employer wants you to think.
At Leatherwood Law, we help injured workers across Houston recover compensation for medical bills, lost income, and long-term disability. Whether your employer carries workers' comp or not, you may have a valid claim under state or federal law—and we’ll fight to protect your rights.
We investigate unsafe work conditions, employer negligence, third-party liability, and denied claims. Our goal is simple: get you every dollar you're entitled to while you focus on recovery.
Don’t settle for what the company offers. Let us fight for what you actually deserve.
