We Fight For Injured Workers
In most states, companies are required to carry workers’ compensation insurance coverage, but in Texas, companies can “opt-out” of this insurance program and have private insurance. These are called “non-subscribers.”
Texas non-subscribers are liable to provide several benefits to injured workers, including:
- Payment of medical expenses related to the workplace injury.
- Coverage or reimbursement for necessary medical care.
- Compensation for lost wages due to the injury.
- Restitution for emotional distress or pain caused by the workplace injury.
These cases can become very difficult to win and that is why it is so important for you to hire a work injury lawyer who is experienced in representing injured workers and fighting for their rights.

How Our Work Injury Lawyers Can Help You
Non-subscriber cases are like other negligence cases, such as car and truck collisions, slip and falls, and defective products. If you can prove that your employer was negligent and violated a duty of care and that the violation was the actual cause of your injury, then you can file a lawsuit (just like a car accident lawsuit) against them and seek more damages.
Non-subscriber cases are more beneficial than a typical negligence case because the law prohibits an employer from arguing defenses to the case that other defendants can make. An experienced workplace accident attorney can help you work out the contours of your case to increase your chances of getting the compensation you deserve.
