Mr. Abrar and his team were more than helpful, vital and supportive of not only my case but my future as well. He was responsive, knowledgeable and quick to act/deliver. 5 stars to him and his team! Even though they will NEVER represent me again, since I NEVER plan to be in criminal court again. I do wish to positively impact lives especially aspiring ones- like Mr. Abrar and his team! Thank you again.

Working on an oilfield is a physically demanding job. Therefore, even when machinery and equipment are up to code, injury can occur in countless other ways. Due to the physical nature of the job, common injuries on an oilfield are:
Unfortunately, physical injuries to workers are more common when an employer fails to upkeep a site or provide reasonable accommodations. With the number of regulations in the oil industry, injury or death on a job site can be the result of systemic issues with adhering to safety codes as often as it is individual error.
If you or a loved one has been harmed due to improper lighting, lack of rest, a failure to provide protective gear, or any other top-down negligence, the Law Office of Abrar and Vergara will gather the evidence necessary to get you the settlement you deserve and the closure you need.
The job of an oilfield worker is unique in the necessity of operating heavy machinery, interacting with dangerous chemicals, and working long hours. While these aspects cannot be entirely avoided, foremen and other supervisors need to respect a high safety standard while overseeing work and should be held liable for not being cautious. Some of the major risks are:
In the situations listed above, damages and compensation can be expected to be much higher than in the case of individual injury. It is even possible to seek a joint settlement to cover the injuries of multiple workers.
Workers’ compensation may be offered by your employer for injuries that happen on the clock, but with such limited coverage and highly variable rates, there’s no assurance that you will be compensated entirely for your injuries. In order to receive not only the damages you are due for lost wages but also pain and suffering or punitive damages, a personal injury lawsuit is the only option. With teams of lawyers and tricky tactics, fighting to have company negligence recognized is a nearly impossible feat on your own, especially while recovering or helping a loved one recover from an injury.
Attorneys Arif Abrar and Linzui Vergara will examine your unique situation to establish who or what was at fault for your injuries and relentlessly go after the liable parties. Oil companies will attempt to settle for as little as possible or push you back into work, but with a lawyer at your side, you can build a strong front to fight unfair treatment and to secure both your physical and financial recovery.
