Houston Chemical Plant and Refinery Accident Lawyer

Representing Workers Injured in Chemical Plant and Refinery Accidents

In the oil and gas industry, chemical plants and refineries are in the “downstream” sector, engaged in refining the crude oil that was first extracted and then transported by tankers. The marketing and selling of oil and gas are also considered to be a downstream sector activity — just as dangerous as the jobs of the workers who extract and transport — but that doesn’t mean chemical plants and refineries are free from dangerous accidents.

We also know that refinery fires and explosions can hurt people living close to the refinery. We know because we’ve handled these cases for 75 years. We are the oldest plaintiffs personal injury law firm in Texas. Call 713-222-7211 (toll free 713-222-7211 ) or contact our office online for a free consultation.
