Pipefitters keep Deer Park’s refineries, chemical plants, and pipeline systems running — and they’re the ones who suffer when companies cut corners on safety. When a pipe bursts, a line releases pressure, a scaffold fails, or a contractor ignores protocol, the consequences are violent and life-changing. At Gilman & Allison, LLP, we represent injured pipefitters who were hurt because someone else chose speed, profit, or negligence over safety. We move quickly to investigate jobsite failures, secure evidence, and hold the responsible companies accountable.
Pipefitters face some of the most dangerous conditions in the industrial sector: high-pressure systems, extreme heat, chemical exposure, confined spaces, and heavy rigging operations. When safety rules are ignored, workers suffer severe burns, crush injuries, fractures, amputations, and toxic exposure. These are not minor incidents — they are catastrophic events that can end careers and permanently impact families. Our firm aggressively pursues claims against negligent contractors, plant owners, third-party companies, and equipment manufacturers whose failures put pipefitters directly in harm’s way.
In Deer Park’s industrial corridor, pipefitters are often injured during shutdowns, turnarounds, maintenance operations, and large construction projects where multiple companies operate side by side. When an injury happens, it is rarely just an “accident.” It is often the result of poor coordination, unsafe jobsite conditions, defective equipment, or a company that failed to enforce basic safety standards. We dig deep into what happened, identify every liable party, and fight to recover the maximum compensation available.
Our attorneys handle serious pipefitter injury cases involving explosions, flash fires, pressure releases, falling pipe and heavy material strikes, scaffold collapses, confined space incidents, and chemical exposure events. Doug Gilman and Brent Allison have spent years fighting for injured workers throughout Deer Park and the surrounding refinery communities. This region is personal to them, and they take an aggressive, results-driven approach to holding large companies accountable when a pipefitter gets hurt. When corporations try to minimize what happened or shift blame, we push back hard and pursue the full value of the claim.
