How We Prove Liability

Fall from height cases in the workplace are among the most common OSHA violations, and citations for lack of fall protection provide strong evidence of employer negligence. The employer, the general contractor, the scaffolding company, and the ladder manufacturer may all bear responsibility depending on what caused the fall. Expert testimony about OSHA fall protection requirements and whether the available safety equipment was properly used and maintained is central to establishing liability.

Texas Legal Framework

OSHA regulations under 29 CFR 1926 Subpart M require fall protection for workers at heights of six feet or more in construction, and these standards apply in Texas. Texas Labor Code provisions regarding nonsubscriber employers are frequently implicated in fall from height cases in the construction industry. When a defective ladder or scaffolding component causes the fall, Texas product liability law under Civil Practice and Remedies Code Chapter 82 allows claims against the equipment manufacturer.

Frequently Asked Questions

At Medina & Medina, we work on a contingency fee basis. This means you pay nothing upfront and no fees unless we win your case. Our fee is a percentage of your recovery.

In Texas, you generally have two years from the date of your injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. However, there are exceptions that may shorten or extend this deadline, so it’s important to consult with an attorney as soon as possible.

You may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, and in some cases, punitive damages. The amount depends on the specific circumstances of your case.

While you’re not required to have a lawyer, having experienced legal representation typically results in higher settlements. Insurance companies have teams of lawyers working for them, and you deserve someone advocating for your interests too.

Compensation depends on the severity of your injuries, medical expenses, lost wages, and impact on your life. Contact Medina & Medina for a free evaluation of your case.

Helpful evidence includes police reports, medical records, photos of the scene, witness statements, and insurance information. Our team will help you gather all necessary documentation.
