What should I do immediately after a forklift accident in Dallas?
After a forklift accident in Dallas, seek medical attention right away, even if your injuries seem minor. Report the incident to your employer and document everything with photos if you are able. Do not sign any release or make a recorded statement before consulting a forklift accident lawyer.
Who can be held liable in a Dallas forklift accident?

Can I file a claim even if workers' compensation is involved?
In Texas, employers can opt out of workers’ compensation, which may give injured workers the right to file a civil lawsuit directly. Even when workers’ comp applies, third-party claims against equipment manufacturers, property owners, or contractors may still be available. We can evaluate all your options during a free consultation.

In Texas, the statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is two years from the date of the accident. Some claims involving government entities or equipment manufacturers may have different deadlines. Contact us promptly to protect your rights.
