Burleson Negligence Lawyer

Fighting for Clients in Johnson County & Greater Fort Worth

In order to file a successful personal injury claim and win compensation for your damages, you must first establish negligence. The reason for this is to prove the other party or parties liable for your accident so that they can be held responsible for your damages. 

Should you fail to establish the negligence of the liable party or parties, you could end up with less compensation than you need to cover your expenses, resulting in extreme financial hardship. The Burleson negligence attorneys at Coontz Cochran can help you plan an effective case.

Understanding Workplace Accidents in Burleson and Johnson County

In Burleson and the surrounding areas of Johnson County, workplace accidents can be a significant concern for both employees and employers. Local industries, including construction, manufacturing, and retail, often face unique challenges that can lead to accidents. The Burleson City Council and the Johnson County government provide resources and guidelines to promote workplace safety, but accidents can still occur due to negligence or unsafe practices.

Common pain points for workers in our area include inadequate safety training, lack of proper equipment, and the pressure to meet production deadlines. These factors can contribute to serious injuries, which not only affect the individual but can also impact the entire workforce. If you or a loved one has been injured in a workplace accident, it’s crucial to understand your rights and the potential for compensation.

Local resources, such as the Texas Department of Insurance, Division of Workers' Compensation, offer valuable information on workers' rights and safety regulations. However, navigating the complexities of workplace accident claims can be overwhelming. That’s where our team at Coontz Cochran comes in. We are familiar with the local landscape and the specific challenges faced by workers in Burleson and Johnson County.
