Our experienced Glen Larson Law Injury Attorneys workplace injury lawyers in Austin are dedicated to developing unique legal strategies for our fellow Texans who have been hurt at work by taking an aggressive approach to producing solution-driven results.
We understand that our Texas economy is supported by inherently dangerous industries, including oil rig and refinery work, construction and labor, production and transportation, and heavy equipment and manufacturing jobs that can lead to severe injury or death during any employee’s workday.
Unfortunately, because of the dangerous nature of Texas employment, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported 608 occupational fatalities throughout the state last year alone, which was the highest in the nation.
The Texas Department of Insurance listed nearly 178,000 non-fatal workplace injuries and illnesses reported by private employers over the same period, which left 30% of those hurt out of work for nine days or more.
If you or your loved one has suffered a severe work injury or has tragically lost their life while on the job, our workplace injury lawyers, wrongful death attorneys, and accomplished support staff provide trusted legal representation for our fellow Texans, no matter where they live or work in the Lone Star State.

Are All Texas Employers Required to Provide Workers’ Compensation Benefits?
Employers are not required to carry workers’ compensation coverage in Texas, unless the company is a public employer.
Whether employers carry workers’ compensation or not, they are bound by our Texas Workers’ Compensation Laws that require them to notify all new hires of their coverage/non-coverage, and must post the same notice in plain view for all employees to see.
Employees have the right to waive their workers’ compensation benefits within five days of their start date, which will make them exempt from gaining their employer’s medical or income benefits but will allow them to retain their right to sue the employer, should a work-related injury occur.
