Fatal injuries from being caught in moving machine parts

How We Prove Liability

Machinery accident claims often target both the employer for unsafe work practices and the equipment manufacturer for design or manufacturing defects. OSHA machine guarding standards require specific protective measures for moving parts, pinch points, and cutting surfaces. When an employer removes or bypasses a safety guard to increase production speed, that decision constitutes strong evidence of negligence that may also support punitive damages.

Texas Legal Framework

OSHA machine guarding regulations under 29 CFR 1910.212 apply to Texas workplaces and establish the duty to guard all points of operation on machinery where workers may contact moving parts. Texas product liability claims under Civil Practice and Remedies Code Chapter 82 allow injured workers to sue machine manufacturers for design defects, manufacturing defects, and failure to warn. Texas Labor Code provisions regarding workers compensation nonsubscribers leave many employers exposed to direct negligence suits for machinery injuries.

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.
