Confidential Settlement – Work Injury Explosion

Our client was a hard working family man from the East side of Houston referred to our firm from another Houston law firm. At the time he was injured, he worked as a welder for a national corporation in the auto part industry. While in the course and scope of his employment, our client was welding when a spark from the torch ignited nearby flammable liquids and vapors in his face. The explosion blew him back several feet and the flames burned through his gloves and face protection. He suffered severe burns to his hands and to his face which required months of medical treatment. Fortunately, the client healed well from his burn injuries due to following the medical treatment plan. After several depositions and obtaining substantial documents from the Defendant in the lawsuit, the parties agreed to a mediation and were able to amicably resolve the case for fair and reasonable compensation to our client.
