Oil Rig Accident Lawyers

in Cody and throughout Wyoming and Colorado

Working on an oil rig is dangerous, as too many employees and former employees are already aware. Unfortunately, all too often, the oil companies that own the rigs don't do enough to mitigate those dangers, leaving hard working employees at even greater risk than necessary.

People who work in oil fields, derricks, refineries, and oil rigs risk serious harm every day from falls, derrick or other equipment collapse, drilling accidents, explosions, electrocution, and exposure to toxic fumes, among other things.

In Colorado and Wyoming, oil rig accidents may be subject to the Workers' Compensation system. However, even if you are entitled to workers' compensation, in some cases, you may be entitled to recover additional damages against third parties.

If you or someone you love was hurt or killed on an oil rig or other oil company equipment, you owe it to yourself and your family to aggressively pursue the compensation you need not only for your family, but also for the safety of other oil company. At Burg Simpson Eldredge Hersh & Jardine, P.C., we have experience handling oil rig accident lawsuits and our attorneys have the resources to ensure you are fully compensated for your injuries and loss.
