It will no doubt take time for crews to sort out what happened here, but there’s the added complexity of a worker being hurt here. Texas work injury law is more complex than in any other state in the country. There is not always a guarantee that victims will receive benefits after an accident. Instead, they may have a legal maze that requires a lot of experience and strategizing to navigate. The sooner those steps are taken, the better.
