Case Filed Against Noble and Diamond Offshore for Slip & Fall

Arnold & Itkin attorneys have filed suit in Harris County against Noble Corporation and Diamond Offshore Drilling after an offshore worker suffered serious injuries in a slip and fall incident aboard one of the companies' vessels. The hazardous condition that caused our client's fall was the kind of problem these companies are required to find and fix before workers are put at risk.

Our client was working offshore when he encountered a leak in an area of the vessel that created an unsafe and slippery condition underfoot. We expect the evidence to reveal that Noble and Diamond Offshore failed to properly inspect, maintain, and repair the equipment responsible for the leak. The hazardous condition was allowed to exist, and workers were left to navigate around it without warning or correction.

Our client slipped, fell, and sustained severe injuries as a result. Offshore vessels are unforgiving environments, and the companies that operate them know it. Routine inspection and maintenance are not optional steps; they are the bare minimum required to keep workers safe in conditions where a single slip can change a person's life.

Our offshore injury lawyers are committed to holding Noble Corporation and Diamond Offshore Drilling accountable for failing to provide a reasonably safe place to work offshore.
