Houston’s construction industry is booming, but the risks for workers are high. Falls, electrocutions, and heavy machinery accidents are just a few of the dangers present on job sites every day. Unlike most states, Texas does not require employers to carry workers’ compensation insurance, which leaves many injured workers with limited options for financial recovery.That’s where The Doan Law Firm comes in. Our team is dedicated to representing Houston construction accident victims and their families. Led by attorney Jimmy Doan, a trial lawyer with a national reputation and record-setting verdicts, we fight for the full compensation you deserve.We work on a no-win, no-fee basis, so you never pay upfront costs. Our firm is available 24/7 and has a 99% case success rate, including multiple settlements and verdicts in the tens of millions. When your livelihood and health are on the line, you need a Houston construction accident lawyer who won’t back down against employers, contractors, or insurance companies.
Construction accident cases in Houston often involve multiple parties and complex liability issues. Our job is to take the burden off you and handle every part of the legal process.
These cases often involve employers, subcontractors, property owners, or even equipment manufacturers. Because workers’ comp may not apply in Texas, we frequently pursue workplace injury claims to ensure our clients are compensated for medical bills, lost wages, disability, and pain and suffering.
Construction is one of the most dangerous industries in Texas. Some of the most common types of accidents we handle include:
Because Texas doesn’t guarantee workers’ compensation coverage, accident victims often must pursue civil claims to recover damages. That’s why choosing an experienced Houston construction accident lawyer is essential—you need someone who can identify all negligent parties and maximize your recovery.
Construction accidents can cause devastating, life-changing injuries. Some of the most common include:
These injuries often require long hospital stays, multiple surgeries, and extended rehabilitation. Victims may be unable to return to work for months, or ever. Beyond medical bills and lost wages, many clients face lifelong physical limitations, emotional trauma, and reduced quality of life.
At The Doan Law Firm, we work with medical experts to fully document the impact of your injuries. By calculating both current and future expenses, we make sure negligent parties are held accountable for all damages, not just your immediate costs.
If you’ve been injured on a construction site, you may be entitled to compensation through a personal injury lawsuit or third-party claim. The types of damages available include:
Unlike workers’ compensation, which is limited, personal injury claims allow you to seek the full range of damages. This is especially important in Texas, where many employers opt out of workers’ comp coverage.
The Doan Law Firm fights to ensure that clients are not short-changed by insurance companies offering low settlements. We build cases that reflect the full scope of your losses, helping you and your family move forward with security and peace of mind.
Can I sue my employer after a construction accident?
In Texas, you may be able to sue your employer if they are a “non-subscriber” and do not carry workers’ comp insurance. If they do carry workers’ comp, your claim usually must go through that system.
What if a contractor or subcontractor caused my accident?
You can often bring a personal injury claim against negligent contractors, subcontractors, or even equipment manufacturers if their actions (or defective products) contributed to your injuries.
How much is my case worth?
Every case is unique. The value depends on factors like the severity of your injuries, medical costs, lost wages, and long-term effects. Our attorneys carefully calculate damages so you don’t settle for less than you deserve.
How long will my case take?
Some cases resolve in months, while others, especially those that go to trial, can take a year or longer. We keep you updated every step of the way.
