Louisiana Shore Tankerman Injured Due to Unsafe Work Conditions
- Arnold & Itkin
Attorneys Noah Wexler, Trevor Courtney, and Shane Munton have filed suit on behalf of a Louisiana shore tankerman who was injured on the job in a preventable accident.
The lawsuit alleges that both a loading company and a plant owner failed to take the necessary steps to ensure that the worksite was safe, putting our client at serious risk while he performed his job duties. Our client now suffers from ongoing lower back pain that affects his daily life and his ability to work.
Workers in the maritime and industrial sectors face enough inherent risk without employers and site owners cutting corners on safety. When companies fail to properly inspect equipment, maintain safe loading procedures, or address known hazards, it is workers like our client who pay the price with their health and their livelihood.
Arnold & Itkin will always fight on behalf of workers who are subjected to unsafe work conditions because of such companies, that are more concerned with efficiency and profit than the people who are carrying out the work.
Our maritime injury lawyers are committed to holding both the loading company and the plant owner accountable, and to securing the compensation our client deserves for his injuries.
