Chemical Plant Injury Lawyer
Industrial Accidents: Los Angeles & Nationwide
Chemical manufacturing plants are subject to many laws and regulations to ensure the safety of their employees and the public. Whenever these safety rules are violated, or someone at the plant otherwise makes a mistake, catastrophic accidents can occur. Chemical plants are prone to fires, explosions, and gas leaks leading to harmful chemical exposure. Burns, amputation, organ damage, and any other number of serious injuries may result.
The Morris Law Firm pursues chemical plant accident claims with your needs in mind. If you or a loved one was injured in or near a chemical plant after an explosion, fire, or chemical leak, we have the legal resources and years of experience to help you recover. Our Southern California-based attorney will negotiate with plant operators, defective product manufacturers, general contractors, insurance companies, and any other parties who may owe you compensation for your injuries. If we don’t get you the settlement offer you deserve, we’ll take your case all the way through trial. Our job is to make sure you get the compensation you deserve for the harm you have suffered.
Common Chemical Plant Accidents and Injuries
If you work at a manufacturing plant, a refinery, or any other sort of chemical plant, you are exposed to several hazards every day. The same applies to any civilians who live or commute nearby chemical plants. Any misstep can lead to a serious accident, causing untold property damage, injury, and possible death.
Between hazardous chemicals, complicated machinery, and heavy equipment, any number of accidents or incidents may occur, including:
- Plant explosion
- Fire
- Hazardous chemical exposure
- Chemical, smoke, or toxic fume inhalation
- Slip and fall
- Electrocution
- Malfunctioning equipment
- Suffocation
- Stuck in-between heavy objects or machinery
- Struck by falling or flying objects

Recovering Compensation After a Chemical Plant Injury
If you’ve been hurt at or near a chemical refinery or manufacturing plant in California, you have the right to seek compensation. If you were injured on the job, you are entitled to workers’ compensation. If your accident was caused by someone outside of your work–such as an equipment manufacturer or contractor–you may have an additional claim for damages as well. Civilians harmed by chemical plant accidents can seek damages from the plant owner or operator as well as other responsible parties.
