The Barnett Shale is a major source of employment in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, and indeed into Denton, Wise, Johnson, Parker, Hood and Cooke Counties. Given the fact that there are now over one billion cars on Earth's roads (according to Ward's Auto), oil and natural gas is still a much needed resource.
As a Tarrant County personal injury lawyer, however, I know that accidents happen in the drilling industry just like any other workplace. It's hard physical work and people do get injured. Normally worker's comp will cover an individual's medical expenses and make a contribution towards any lost salary, but for many families depending on a full paycheck, worker's compensation often isn't enough.
If you or a loved one has been injured in an oil or gas field accident, you may be entitled to additional damages depending on the situation which caused your accident.
