When Defective Products are to Blame for an Oil Rig Accident
If you have been injured on a fixed oil platform, you may not be sure what exactly caused the harm. We investigate. At our law office, trial lawyer Glenn C. McGovern is a licensed pilot. We have been known to fly out to fixed platforms and inspect the circumstances surrounding a serious injury. This approach has helped us achieve results that go above and beyond the work of most law firms — our on site investigations have uncovered actionable product defects and premises liability issues.
Taking a close look at your fixed platform accident lets us hold the right people accountable when dangerous conditions, like defective drilling rigs, wellheads and other machinery, are to blame. It lets us examine whether safety features in production facilities and crew quarters are improperly designed or installed.
